For over two decades, Hudson Valley Lighting has been driven by Founder and Owner David Littmans vision to produce timeless, heirloom-quality collections through a wide range of styles from the 19th and 20th centuries.

ARTISAN CRAFTSMANSHIPHudson Valley Lighting is dedicated to artisan craftsmanship in creating masterful, high-quality designs with a focus on exceptional materials and careful attention to detail. The results speak for themselvesantique-quality lighting designs that look beautiful for generations to come.

UNIQUE AESTHETICSSpanning in style from historic to artisan and transitional to contemporary, Hudson Valley Lighting uses high-grade materials such as solid cast brass, crystal, acrylic and blown glass. Superior manufacturing techniques, such as brass forging and hand-rubbed finishes, along with innovative technologies, allows one to appreciate the difference firsthand.

AN EXCEPTIONAL EXPERIENCEThe quality and spectacular beauty of each Hudson Valley Lighting fixture cant be found in more industrialized products. This unique experience, not typically seen in lighting design, provides its owners with a profound sense of pride and extreme appreciation for a lifetime of enjoyment.

DAVID LITTMAN

When I see a piece of antique furniture, my imagination goes wild about its history and how the lines and details are still

relevant today. Great design is something that spurs curiosity,

imagination and emotion.

In the world of design, journeyingin some way, shape or formis a constant. The turn around a showroom corner can lead to an inspiring discovery. An architectural structure rising from the landscape might spur a Moleskine full of ideas. From early September through late June, the pace in our industry is rapid-fire with fresh introductions in textiles, furniture, lighting, home accents and materials. To a large extent, this is what stimulates us, excites us, and nudges the design zeitgeist along.

If ever there was a time to decelerate though, it is summer, when the pace slackens and so many escape to far-flung places (Will everyone be shopping in Europe this summer? Seems so). Taking a journeywhether its as modest as transitioning from your living room to the backyard for an afternoon, or more elaborate, as in two weeks overseasfurther encourages the design dialogue. For those of us with a desire to remain curious, and sweep through life with a fine-tuned eye, the adventure never stops.

Where Are You heAded?

NEW+NoWgeT To know four MiaMi influenCers as They sheD lighT on whaTs of The MoMenT in Design, arT anD arChiTeCTure.

wriTTen anD ProDuCeD By brIelle m. ferreIra

1 thE grEEN thumb paloma teppaWhats happening: in major cities, theres been an increase in awareness regarding the benefits of living with plants and other natural elements. were seeing more and more vertical gardens, green walls, urban farms, etc.

Having a moment: ive always been very impressed by the work of Daniel arsham, whom i love and have been following for some time now. he just presented a large installation in collaboration with Cos at the salone del Mobile in Milan.

Cant get enough of The work of fashion show producer etienne russo; what hes been able to do for karl lagerfeld and Chanel is beautiful. im very much into creating different worlds and the art of the mise-en-scne when it comes to stage design.

Not to be missed: Theres nowhere like the fairchild Tropical Botanic garden if youre looking to find inspiration from nature. The terrace at the Prez art Museum Miami and the new 1 hotel & homes in south Beach are also definitely worth a visit.

on your radar: Miami landscape architect Matthew lewis recreates outdoor spaces in a dreamy, exuberant way, building tropical fantasies that utilize our native plant species.

Go-to design read: The book i look at again and again is Diana yakeleys Indoor Gardening.

favorite blooms: i love working with exotic orchids, and ive been happy to find quite a few new specimens lately. im also fond of cataleas, vandas, dendrobiums and succulents.

Paloma Teppa is the founder and creative force behind the Wynwood institution Plant the Futurean art and design studio whose roots run deep, literally: Teppa only works with living plants for her green designs.

2 thE mErchaNt bobby berkWhats trending: i continue to see a huge growth in sustainable design. im currently working on a project in las Vegas with Pardee homes called inspirada. were really focused on using sustainable materials and solar components to make individual homes as self-sufficient as possible.

for the design-obsessed: The Vagabond hotel is one of my favorite spots in Miami right now. it was recently meticulously restored and is a delight for design loversor anyone for that matter. its my go-to place for a fun cocktail with friends.

biggest inspiration: Design is always changing and that in itself keeps me on my toes. im obsessed with scanning instagram and design blogs for new products and ideas to help jump-start my creativity.

Spotlight on: The resurgence of american manufacturing is really intriguing me currently. its amazing to see all of the innovation in this arena recently and how many major retailers are getting on board. it will be interesting to see if were able to fully pull this industry back stateside and retake our place on the world stage as the premier country for furniture manufacturing.

favorite thing in inventory: we have a product called stikwood. its a self-adhesive wood wall treatment that gives the illusion of a real wood wall, but its actually very thin strips of veneer that you can install yourself.

miami shopping destination: The Design District is becoming the center for everything design in Miami, from

furniture to fashion. The groundbreaking architecture that is popping up in this area is amazing, and im constantly on the edge of my seat waiting to see what happens next.

Day trip: i cant remember the last afternoon i took off, but i would love to pay a much overdue visit to the everglades. i also really enjoy spending my downtime in Crandon Park. you can get lost in it all day. its a beautiful place.

Founder of an eponymous chain of home retail destinations, Bobby Berk lives in Miami, where his favorite day consists of lying on the beach doing absolutely nothing.

THE INSIDERS

3 the architect oscar glottmango-to event: I never miss the Design and Architecture Senior High (DASH) School Showcase. I always discover something interesting and inspiring there each year.

Best miami retreat: South Pointe Park has it all. Its the fulcrum of the city, as it serves as the entrance to the Port of Miami and offers the most remarkable panoramic vistas of the water and all the action.

materials of the moment: Photoluminescent surfaces, acrylic panels and paint, and the printable nylon powders and liquid resins that are used in rapid prototyping, which Im very interested in as of late.

Hot in miami: The blossoming of the art industry,

specifically its growth and expansion into areas like Little Haiti, where new artist studios, international galleries and a multimillion-dollar cultural center are truly redefining the area.

Keep an eye on Daniele Lago. Hes a talented designer and founder of an innovative eponymous furniture company in Italy. His closets, kitchens and door systems are extremely sophisticated and have the power to change the way we live.

next up: Im launching a new concept for my practice in the fall called Alive. It has to do with the way we integrate interior design and architecture to create a unique living environment that better accommodates our clients needs and the way they live.

on your radar: Landscape architect Margarita Blanco at Arquitectonica Geo is a major innovator. Her work at the Prez Art Museum Miami is nothing short of inspiring.

Oscar Glottman is an architect and founder of an eponymous home furnishings showroom in the Design District. For inspiring interiors, he examines the scenes of some of his favorite Peter Greenaway films.

4 the photographer iran issa-KHanmust-see destinations: I love The Wolfsonian in Miami Beach. Ive known founder Micky Wolfson for years, and he is doing such important work in the area. Im also enjoying watching the talented team at the Bakehouse Art Complex come into its own.

Up next: Im working on a fashion book, collecting all my work from years photographing for Vogue and Harpers Bazaar. But right now, nature is what I love most. Were putting together an exhibit of my nature photography in London with architect Zaha Hadid. Were good friends, and our work is similar in our love of organic shapes.

Biggest challenge: I think photographing Nancy Reagan at the White House. You can imagine giving orders in the White House, just walking in and making her do what we needed for the shot. But in the end, it turned out beautiful. We had her the whole day and had a wonderful time together.

modern muses: Im interested in photographers who know how to appreciate and convey beauty, like Steven Klein, Annie Leibovitz and Bruce Weber, who was a mentor and very good friend when I started out in the 1980s. Im also a big fan of classic fashion portraiture from Irving Penn and Deborah Turberville.

Best place to get lost: I love going to the Miami Symphony. We need to develop more of our own art and music in the city and the symphonys director, Eduardo Marturet, and his beautiful wife, Athina, have done so much to nurture that growth already.

travel inspiration: My eye for photography was developed in large part thanks to growing up in Iran. Everything there is so sensual, like the architecture and the way we look at life. Then, I learned a lot about sophistication from my time in Paris and London.

Iran Issa-Khan is a celebrated fashion and portrait photographer turned nature buff who hates being in front of the camera as much as she loves being behind it.

Brought together by a love of all things textile, Stacy Waggoner and Kate Reynolds teamed up to create a cutting-edge design studio offering fabrics, rugs and wallpaper motifs from top designers around the world. Now, almost a decade later, Studio Four NYC boasts some of the hottest names in textile design alongside emerging talents, with much of the duos success lying in their creative acuity for partnering with artists, innovators and risk-takers. This summer, Studio Four releases three not-to-be-missed lines that fit just that mold.

Designer-painter Rebecca Atwood first burst onto the scenepaintbrush in handcaptivating her Instagram audience one bespoke pillow and dreamy watercolor print at a time. Her artistry soon led to a partnership between Atwood and Studio Four, one that has since developed into a blooming design venture as the Cape Cod native sets to release her debut collection of hand-painted and marbleized fabrics with the studio. Her textiles are so chic and livable, says Reynolds. Be on the lookout for her wallpaper collection to launch soon.

Just when you thought leather had nothing new to offer, Brit Kleinman, of Brooklyns Avo, enters the field, proving the possibilities have only just begun: Her jaw-dropping block-printed cowhides, branded with bold, artistic patterns and daring geometrics, incorporate a touch of modernity into the timeworn material. We love leather and the luxury of something that keeps getting better with age, says Waggoner of the partnership. Brit is changing the way that people use and experience this textile.

Studio Fours next debut proves that the art of plaster isnt lost but rather in a state of renaissance thanks to Celeste Coughlin of Asterisk Designs. This doyenne of Venetian

plaster developed a specialized technique for transcribing waxed plaster onto paper, coining a perfect science to translate this ancient (and tedious) process onto a custom roll of wallpaper. We have always loved the gorgeous, creamy texture of Venetian plaster walls, says Waggoner, and when we met Celeste we knew we were destined for something great to unfold.

With all these exciting collections debuting this season, Studio Fours Chelsea showroom is the perfect spot to garner inspiration for any and all design endeavors. Design is a luxury, says Reynolds. It should always inspire and never intimidate. ph

THE SURF CLUB MIAMIAn infamous, members-only social club that once entertained the likes of Frank Sinatra and Elizabeth Taylor is being boldly reimagined by acclaimed architect Richard Meier. Located in the South Florida town of Surfside, the Surf Club will be a visual dialogue between the old and the new, transforming the original 1930s club into a Four Seasons boutique hotel and residences. Meiers material palette will be simple: Floor-to-ceiling glass will maximize horizontal views of the Atlantic Ocean, while local surfaces, namely fl ooring of porous coral stone, will detail the exterior. Inside, handpicked furnishings will be set amidst the clean backdrop of the architects signature colorwhite. thesurfclub.com

CHICAGO ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION CHICAGO Founded in 1890 by families of American sports royalty (think Wrigley and Spalding), the Chicago Athletic Association has been a fi xture in the Windy City for more than a century. The famed location, originally designed by architect Henry Ives Cobb, has now been revamped into a luxury lifestyle hotel by design duo Roman and Williams. We were devoted to preserving the character and details of this historic building while creating a new language, say the designers. The aesthetic maintains the buildings original fi replaces with bas-relief wood carvings, expansive marble staircases and stained glass, yet speaks to classic Americana with vintage artifacts like wooden gym ladders, Victorian-inspired lighting and leather furnishings. chicagoathletichotel.com

THE PALLADIAN HOTEL SEATTLE The Palladian Hotel, established in Seattle in 1910, was named for the Palladian windows that defi ned the architecture of the time. Today, San Francisco-based designer Nicole Hollis has taken this historically signifi cant building and given it a speakeasy vibe with a sense of humor (pillows printed with Tom Sellecks portrait, for example). Reclaimed-wood headboards juxtapose crisp, white Frette linens in the guest rooms, while brass accents, velvet upholstery and a tufted-leather check-in characterize the lobby, with the hotels original doors standing at the entrance of the gym. Ornamented by custom Ladies & Gentlemen light fi xtures, Hollis warm yet playful interiors program boasts a quintessential Seattle feel and refl ects the pulsating street culture found just outside. palladianhotel.com

URBAN BOY MEETS RENAISSANCE GIRL IN DESIGNER WINDSOR SMITHS EPONYMOUS DEBUT COLLECTION FOR ARTERIORS.

HE SAID, SHE SAID

I WANT MY PIECES TO FEEL LIKE SOMETHING YOU WOULD HAND DOWN TO THE NEXT GENERATION.-WINDSOR SMITH Athena & Atlas Sconces / Windsor Smith Collection for Arteriors / $675 each / arteriorshome.com.

I want my pieces to feel like something you would hand down to the next generation, explains designer Windsor Smith in reference to her new 40-piece collection for Arteriors. Brimming with furnishings, lighting and home accents in a range of tonal golds, mixed metals and varied marbles, the line fl irts between masculine and feminine dichotomies. Case in point: Smiths Athena sconce (shown here in silver) was inspired by the delicate drop of an earring, while the Atlas sconce (shown in gold)

reveals the same caged form but in a more industrial, geometric outline. It is through shape and silhouette, says Smith, that instant sculpture is evoked. Laced with neoclassical and Greco-Roman infl uences, the collection leaves a rich patina in its wake, beckoning centuries past while maintaining modern relevance. My goal was to reinterpret traditional in a beautiful, lasting way with utilitarian pieces that are meant to be used and not thought of as too precious, Smith explains. Mission accomplished.

the Latin american art Museum in Miami will feature sculpture on its expansive cantilevered terraces to extend the experience outdoors.

boom townwhat was once a static cityscape radiates with new energy as miamiand its proliferating skylinegets its place in the sun.

theres something special brewing in Miami. a city known for its sultry year-round summers and pulsating nightlife has quickly become a seedbed for culturati and starchitects the world over. case in point is the proposed Latin american art Museum, whose imposing layered structure, shown here, by New York- and Mexico city-based FR-ee/Fernando Romero enterprise will house the private collection of art aficionado Gary Nader upon its opening in 2016. Joining the grand landmark is a dizzying register of new permanent installations that will soon dot the skyline; the renowned names behind them reading like the roll call for a gathering of modern architectures brightest

stars: Rem Koolhaas (Faena Forum), Norman Foster (Faena house), Zaha hadid (1000 Museum condos), Jeanne Gang (Sweetbird South Residences) and arquitectonica (Brickell city centre), to list a handful. even hollywood heavy hitters like The Great Gatsby director Baz Luhrmann and his set designer wife, catherine Martin, are lending their fanciful design vision to the interiors of what will become the Faena hotel, one of the elements making up the much-anticipated Faena district in Miami Beach, a fantasyland dreamed up by argentine developer alan Faena set to include hotels, residences, retail and an art and culture forum. its safe to say that Miami is architectures new muse.

Your new fine art series focuses on exotic animals in unexpected places. What inspired the collection? Since living in Los Angeles, Ive always enjoyed the quick escape to the desert, and the Parker Palm Springs has been my longtime favorite hotel there. This was a chance to let my imagination run wild, and apparently it ran right into a menagerie of wild animals enjoying the hotel with me.

How did animals become your muse? I have a deep love for flamingos and penguins and couldnt stop envisioning them on the property. Working with them and the capuchin monkey, zebra and baby giraffe was so much funI wish I could live in this fantasy every day.

Any divas on set? We had trainers to direct the crew and myself on how to interact with them to keep them as happy models. Zack the zebra wasnt much of a fan of the balloons, as they kept popping, but he was a professional and we got the shot.

Images of animals in dreamlike settings are one part of your repertoire, but youre also known for aerial shots of beach scenes. How do you capture the perfect composition? When Im in the air, people and objects begin to stand out and

form patterns below. Once Im up there, everything magically comes together visually for me and Im able to capture the natural art that is being created below in the distance.

Whats the most daring stunt youve done to get the perfect shot? Standing on a 10-foot inflatable boat in the waters of Antarctica, shooting beach balls up against icebergs the size of a skyscraper that could break apart at any moment. It was the thrill of a lifetime.

Youve said your favorite part of your job is getting to see the world. Can you offer a piece of travel advice to those filled with the same wanderlust? If youre ever in Bhutan, you must visit the Tigers Nest Monastery, one of the countrys most sacred religious sites. Built in the 8th century on the side of a cliff, it is something of another world.

Photographer Gray Malin journeys to far and away places, capturing eccentric moments that spark fantasy and wonder, like llamas adorned in balloons amidst Bolivias salt flats, or rainbow-hued sheep in Australia. In his new fine art series, Gray Malin at the Parker, he keeps his zest for adventure close to home, shooting at the Parker Palm Springs as exotic animals playfully explore the iconic resort that unites luxury with amusement. Malin put down his camera to discuss the enchanting series, where monkeys are bellhops and giraffes are the guests, temporarily on view at the hotel. With an infectious joie de vivre, he proves the old adage: not all who wander are lost. he
