I love this installation "Pyramid Pillow" by French artist Cyril Lancelin (@town.and.concrete), who created this immersive pillow sculpture to draw on the nostalgia of childhood pillow forts and encourage viewers to stay home.
Where ever your window to the world may be, I hope you are discovering the unique beauty around you. Here, I recall a visit to The Hague in the Netherlands earlier this year
Our thoughts are with those stateside and in the cities we love; San Francisco, Boston, New York, and beyond. I was fortunate to be able to visit my alma mater before the museum closures, @mfaboston, for close inspection of paintings and works that I consider my old friends.
"Now that our surroundings are more important than ever, we are feeling especially grateful for the essential tools of color, pattern and finishes in our daily work lives." - Fromental
Pictured here is my Johnson Bangles pattern with

The captivating work of Alberto Giacometti reminds us that some of the greatest works of art and design are born from crisis: propelled by the terrors of World War II, Giacometti entered into a period of intense productivity that would go on to define his style.
A regram from our partner manufacturer @boyd_lighting, who reminds us, "It's important to get together at the end of the day and enjoy a meal!"
We hope you are finding time to connect with loved ones, even if digitally, at this time.
We have officially launched Vector with Speakman, a strikingly modern bathroom collection that celebrates architectural purity with strong lines that guide the eye. I love how these products help turn a bathroom into an enveloping six-star experience.

During our time here in Venice, I’ve had a great time finding views and motifs on walks to the various markets for necessities and composing them into "capriccios".
I hope you-my friends, partners, and peers throughout the world-are staying safe and finding inspiration as well.
I wanted to share more of my recent drawings, created during our isolation here in Venice. These are all bits and parts of a day’s memories, a stream of consciousness emerging through the mind's eye to the pen.
The regal Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute across the Grande Canal, which is now a brilliant turquoise rather than its usual dark green due to the decrease in activity during the quarantine. This is is a phenomenon not seen in centuries.
A close up of the elegant white quartzite top and wood base of my Cirque Coffee Table for @quintus.
Venice has long been a source of inspiration for my designs: in a wallcovering I developed for Koroseal, Venetian Linen, bright peaks of light add drama and motion.
In this collaboration with @studioahome, I created a modern twist on a classic shape, the amphorae, which was used as early as the Bronze Age. Elongating the shape and making it with fine Portuguese ceramic brings modernity to a shape steeped in history.
Revisiting pictures from our European tour brings us joy during this quiet time! Pictured is one of our very favorite museums in Paris, Museé Nissim de Camodo. Its rooms are sumptuous and filled with some of the finest pieces of furniture ever crafted.
The Smithsonian Institution now allows the world to engage with its vast repository of resources via a new Open Access platform. It is a great at-home resource for design inspirations!
An update from our quarantine in Venice: we are fully enjoying the access to fresh produce here, and I am grateful to have such a talented chef with me. Arthur and I wish you all well, love from Italy!
A few weeks back, Arthur and I were privileged to have a warm coffee reception @museumvoorlinden with owner/founder Joop van Caldenborgh and his daughter Yvette, followed by a tour of the exhibition titled MOMENTUM which was curated from their extensive private collection.
