The listening bar has been having its moment - low lights, drinks, someone earnest behind the turntable. Now the ritual is moving home, and the hi-fi evening has become something you host rather than book. Think a turntable given pride of place, records shelved to be seen, seating arranged around the speakers rather than the television. It's hosting at its most generous: one album, played properly, start to finish. We've curated the room - the music, mercifully, remains yours. Below, everything but the B-sides.

Some houses explain an artist better than any retrospective. The places on this list weren't just lived in - they were made, obsessively, room by room, often over decades. A cobalt-blue courtyard in Coyoacán. A glass box lifted above the São Paulo rainforest. A Sussex farmhouse where no surface escaped a paintbrush. Most are open to visit, a few take planning, and all of them reward it. These are ten worth knowing about.

10 Artists' Houses To Save Around The World

England rewards those who go looking. No peak here rivals the Alps, but the variety more than makes up for it: chalk ridges, dramatic coastlines and gritstone edges with views far bigger than their height suggests. These routes capture the best of the country’s landscapes, from Chilterns beechwoods, to the wild Devon coast, to the Peak District’s most photographed hill. Bring proper boots, check the Devon tide times, and pack a flask.

Our Monthly What’s On is a curated round-up of the exhibitions, restaurant openings and residencies, and gigs we’re making plans for. From gallery shows and design fairs to new tables worth booking, cultural moments to catch, and the under-the-radar events you’ll wish you’d heard about sooner.
Think of it as your cultural compass for the month ahead: a considered edit of art, food, cinema and design, chosen to inspire weekends well spent.

What's On In July

Art has a way of choosing its location well. The places on this list aren't cities that happen to have galleries - they're towns, islands, and desert outposts where the art and the landscape have become inseparable. A whitewashed fishing village that drew Dalí. A Japanese island that became a permanent installation. A valley in the Sonoran that made space for something stranger. Whether you're planning around them or letting them redirect a trip entirely, these are ten places worth knowing about.

10 Art Destinations To Save

The best campsites tend to be the ones that don't try too hard. A field with a view, a farm shop that sells eggs, a walk to the beach that takes less than ten minutes. The 10 on this list have been chosen for their settings - dunes on the west coast of Scotland, a valley below Kinder Scout, the most southerly point in Britain, and for having resisted the urge to become holiday parks. Book early where you can. The good ones know exactly what they have.

Nice Things This Week

Winter changes how we use our homes. Even the best-styled bedroom or sofa starts to feel incomplete without something extra to pull over your knees, your shoulders, or the end of the bed. A good winter blanket isn’t decorative - it’s functional comfort, on standby. This is our considered winter blanket edit: pieces that add warmth without weight, softness without sloppiness, and texture without visual noise. These are blankets that earn their place through long evenings, early nights, and slow weekend mornings.

There’s a particular feeling you get when you step into a really good boutique hotel bedroom. Not flashy. Not over-designed. Just calm, cocooning, and slightly better than real life. The bed looks inviting rather than styled. The lighting is low and flattering. Nothing feels accidental but nothing feels try-hard either. The good news? Learning how to make your bedroom feel like a boutique hotel has far less to do with square footage or budgets, and far more to do with restraint, texture, and a few deliberate choices. Think less “Instagram makeover” and more “would I want to read a book here for three hours?”

Bedroom Like a Hotel

Aquarius season (January 20 – February 18) invites originality, clarity, and a fresh kind of freedom.
Represented by the water-bearer, Aquarians are guided by intellect, independence, and a quietly rebellious streak. They’re drawn to ideas and objects that feel thoughtful, future-facing, and slightly unexpected - things with a point of view. Aquarius thrives in spaces that feel light and intelligently composed: clean lines, curious colour, sculptural details, and pieces that spark conversation. Not overly sentimental, but deeply intentional, they have a talent for making a home feel like a lived-in gallery - calm, clever, and distinctly their own. With wit, warmth, and a refusal to do “the obvious,” Aquarius bring a sense of possibility to everything they touch.

Boxing Day is for staying horizontal.
Start with layers of cushions. Add a hot water bottle for extra warmth. Finish with a big quilt - or maybe two. You’re not aiming for proper sleep, just drifting: half-awake, half-dreaming, wrapped in comfort, with the vague possibility of a leftover mince pie within reach.

Boxing Day Nap

This week’s moodboard takes its cue from the McCallister family home in Home Alone - a place where Christmas is turned all the way up, from the moment Kevin is left in charge. Think glowing lights, generous colour, busy rooms and that unmistakable feeling of a house ready for chaos, comfort and celebration in equal measure. We’ve chosen rich tones, cosy textures and festive details that capture the warmth and nostalgia of the film, reimagined for a home that feels welcoming, layered and lived in.

Each week, every member of the Glassette team selects their favourite finds, whether that’s exciting new arrivals, products we’ve spotted trending, or timeless pieces we can’t stop thinking about. It’s a moment for us to share what’s inspiring us, what we’re coveting, and what we think deserves a little extra spotlight. Think of it as a weekly dose of joy, discovery, and design inspiration - handpicked by the Glassette team.

The English pub garden is a specific kind of pleasure - part institution, part accident. Nobody designed most of them; they simply accumulated, a few benches at a time, until they became the reason you went. The 10 here are the ones the Glassette team keep going back to: a three-storey treehouse in north London, a stone terrace above the Channel where the beer arrives through a hatch, a Dales garden lit by gaslight, a lawn with a Victorian viaduct for a backdrop. Some do serious food, some do pasties and nothing else. All of them reward staying longer than you meant to.

Pinterest's 2026 wedding trends guide is here. In 2026, weddings are feeling less traditional and far more personal. Couples are moving away from polished perfection in favour of atmosphere, individuality and spaces that feel layered with character. Think candlelit pubs over formal venues, sculptural cakes, undone florals, analogue entertainment and tablescapes that borrow from intimate dinner parties rather than classic receptions. The modern wedding is becoming an exercise in world-building: expressive, cinematic and deeply reflective of personal taste, where every detail, from glassware to styling, feels curated rather than conventional.
