Tastemaker Peter Dunham—best known for his stylish L.A. showroom, Hollywood at Home, as well as his covetable interiors and eye-catching textile and wallpaper collections—has launched his first East Coast showroom, Peter Dunham Home & Garden. “For me, design is all about the mix, and I love layering the showroom the way I like to design,” says Dunham. “That’s what makes me happy: art, accessories, vintage, my designs mixed with artisan collabs, juxtaposing new and old. I want to be a resource that feels activated and dynamic.”
Time & Again
Holly Hunt has introduced The First Collection by Vladimir Kagan Design Group. Led by Chris Eitel, Kagan’s protégé and current Director of Design and Production at the legacy brand, this launch includes modern translations of Kagan’s earliest designs: a chair and a table, originally designed for his parents’ home in 1947. Versions of these pieces hit the market in 1948 at the first Kagan store on E. 65th Street in New York City. With these reintroductions, Eitel stayed true to the original form of each piece, making slight adjustments for today’s lifestyle. For the armchair version, he gave the inside of the arms a more sculpted design compared to the original—a feature that honors Kagan’s ethos of sculpting “vessels to hold the human body”—while he kept the outside of the arms a more defined line like the original. There’s also a larger-scale version of the First Chair to better suit the needs of the modern home.
Bold Strokes
Parachute
Prisma Round
Spray Swirl
Responsible for creating more than 60 designs during The Rug Company’s 27-year history, Paul Smith, the master of color and design, once again returns to collaborate on seven new rugs that put a fresh spin on his well-known stripe signature. From a circular prism design to a swirl design in muted jewel tones to one that features free-flowing forms that seemingly float across the design in a refreshing windswept motion, each piece is destined to be a modern heirloom. In addition to stock rugs with available inventory, each design can also be customized to suit any space.
RSVP to Style
J.McLaughlin’s new RSVP capsule collection centers around wearable and elevated evening wear with styles that Co-Founder and Creative Director Kevin McLaughlin describes as taking the customer as “close to fashion as she wants to go without taking her over the edge.” When dreaming up the perfect evening wear collection, J.McLaughlin knew that Steven Stolman, who spent more than three decades working in fashion and more recently in interior design, was the perfect partner. The curated collection features designs such as sheath dresses, as well as taffetta gowns, mixed in with pieces that are slightly more casual.

A Place to Call Home
The title of Amy Kehoe and Todd Nickey’s book is Golden Light: The Interior Design of Nickey Kehoe, and chronciles the design duo’s bevy of design projects they have created from their home base in California. Now, in Greenwich Village, another sort of golden light is emanating from their new storefront on East 10th Street, an East Coast outpost of their Los Angeles showroom, Nickey Kehoe. The 4,000-square-foot space is divided into two areas. The Salon space offers a selection of statement furniture, custom lighting, textiles and bespoke objects. Below the Salon, the Household section pays homage to the utilitarian beauty of everyday items where customers will find an array of products for the pantry, laundry room, garden and beyond. “It was serendipity that led us to our new space in New York,” Nickey and Kehoe explain. “A casual visit sparked our curiosity, and one look inside the brownstone—with its Murano chandeliers and expansive mirrors—had our hearts racing. The grandeur of the space felt like a thrilling opportunity to bring our aesthetic into.”
