Shop, Eat, Envy

At the new Hesperios shop in SoHo, the shelves are meticulously arranged with knits, ceramics and fancy loaves of bread. Too good to be true?

I would be under-capitalized.

Good luck to him.
He may have solved the traffic problem.

Damien Hirst’s Post-Venice, Post-Truth World

The artist worked in secret on his first love, painting, for his new show. This is the anti-Venice, he says.

I don't want to have this work in my home.

What I want in my home is not yet known.

I know a deal about art.  I don't know what I like.

Real Estate

Off the Grid, on Maui

As TreeHugger’s founder, Graham Hill, discovered when he built a home in Hawaii, a sustainable house can be more luxurious than a conventional one.

Start with location.
Much of the glass is fixed.
Consider materials.
I see a gas line.
Dinner parties will be catered.
Maid service required.
I saw no vegetable garden.
Electric bicycle.

Call an UBER?
The photovoltaics are horizontal.  Is there hail in Maui?
