In handwoven silks, printed linens, and more, electrifying riffs on historic patterns signal a renewed embrace of the ancient Asian craft.
JAUNTY STRIPES
The animated zigs and zags on a chair's slubby silk slipcover (Jim Thompson) are inspired by the lettering of a Buddhist manuscript; the curtains' carnivalesque design (Manuel Canovas) reimagines an archival Louis XVI ikat on subtly glazed linen.

Golden Hours
ABOUT A YEAR AGO, design brand strategist Sean Yashar wrote an essay for his Sub-stack newsletter lamenting the disappearance of evening photography—images of atmospherically lit rooms—from design magazines like this one. There are several explanations for this, including a pivot away from the more glamorous, even disco-influenced aesthetic of the 1970s and '80s to a flatter, shadowless decorative point of view and, of course, the transformational evolution from analog to digital technology. Regardless of design preferences or technological advancements, our lives at home unfold across a wide range of light conditions, from dusk to dawn, with many of our domestic moments occurring after dark. It seemed a lost opportunity not to tell the stories of those “narrative-rich hours,” as Yashar called them, in VERANDA.
