Established in Copenhagen in 2017, Tekla was born from a frustration with the gap in the market for home textiles that were simultaneously beautiful, affordable and made with genuine environmental care. Taking inspiration from art and architecture, the brand produces bedding, towels and sleepwear from organic cotton in Europe, with their products all designed to be lived in for years.

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.

Summer has a way of sending everyone in different directions. This year, the Glassette team is scattered across an alpine lake in Austria, an old town in the Algarve, a quiet corner of Devon, and the Italian Riviera. No grand theme, no single destination - just the places we've actually booked, the reasons we picked them, and a few recommendations worth saving for your own trip. Here's where we're going.

Glassette Team's Summer Holidays

Summer 2026 is set to be a rollicking one for music, and album covers have been nothing to turn our noses up at either. From Charli xcx to Kelela and Madonna, we’re assured months of sound that is sonically riotous. But what would décor look like if left to the devices of the albums set to soundtrack the scorching weather? From vivid pastels to minimalist backdrops and landscapes with gritty edges, here’s décor fueled by this summer’s most anticipated releases – and the albums already setting the tone for the months ahead.

Copenhagen’s 3 Days of Design returns with a jam-packed programme of exhibitions, installations and brand takeovers across the city. It’s a lot to soak up, with more than 50 brands taking part this year – but we’ve got you covered.
From interactive installations to first-time collaborations, anniversary milestones and an oyster and champagne bar, here’s what you need to know ahead of the viral design week.

Britain is not, on paper, an obvious beach destination. The water is cold, the weather is unpredictable, and yet - on the right day, at the right tide - there are stretches of coastline here that rival anywhere in the world. Powder-white sand backed by machair grassland in the Outer Hebrides. Vast, empty dune systems in Norfolk that make you feel genuinely alone. Dramatic sea stacks off the Antrim coast, turquoise coves in Cornwall that look lifted from somewhere considerably further south. The secret, of course, is knowing where to go, and being prepared to get a little windswept getting there.

From the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany to the whitewashed shores of Mílos, Europe’s most beautiful summer stays promise slow mornings, long lunches and unforgettable views. Check into Il Palazzotto or Casa Newton for romantic Italian charm, or escape to Hotel Mediterraneo on Kastellorizo for turquoise waters and laid-back glamour. In Portugal, Muxima in Aljezur offers barefoot luxury, while La Colombe d’Or in St Paul-de-Vence remains an icon for art lovers. Marseille’s Tuba Club, Nice’s Hotel du Couvent and Mallorca’s Hotel Corazón capture the effortless elegance of a Mediterranean summer escape.

There is a particular kind of swimming that has nothing to do with lanes, lap counters, or chlorine. It happens at the edge of things - where land meets ocean, where rock has been shaped by tide and time, where the water is cold and alive and connected to something much larger than a pool. It happens in places that were carved by volcanoes, built by hand during the Depression, or simply discovered one afternoon at the end of a rocky path.
They exist on almost every coastline in the world, and no two are alike. Some are grand civic monuments, art deco curves cut against a crashing surf. Some are nothing more than a hollow in the lava, filled twice a day by the Atlantic. Some are free, some are heritage listed, some require a scramble down a cliff to reach. What they share is harder to define - a quality of place, of wildness held just barely in check, of swimming that feels like it actually means something.
This is a celebration of the best of them. From the sun-bleached rock pools of Australia to the volcanic coastlines of Iceland and Madeira, from the lidos of Cornwall to a hidden lagoon on a Greek island most people haven't heard of - these are the pools worth travelling for. Bring a towel. The water's cold. Get in anyway!

Bathing, it turns out, has never really been about hygiene. We sat down with Sharmadean Reid, founder of fragrance and bathing brand 39BC, to explore the quiet resurgence of bath culture - and why stepping into hot water feels increasingly radical. She traces the ritual roots of bathing from Roman thermae to Japanese onsen, reflects on the childhood memory that sparked 39BC's founding idea, and makes a compelling case for why the bath is one of the last spaces untouched by optimisation culture. Plus: the seasonal scents she reaches for, the contemporary bathhouse she'd build, and her vision for what bathing, at its best, can actually give you back.

Bathing Is Back

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.

The Winter Blanket Edit

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

This week’s moodboard looks to Marty Supreme, a film that’s become a cultural artefact before most people have even taken their seats. In cinemas now, its rollout has set a new benchmark for how movies show up in culture.
For this week’s film moodboard, we’re borrowing from its world of sharp suits, sharp wit, and scenes that unfold over a perfectly poured drink. Think clean-lined martini glasses, silver platters, and tableware that leans polished and pared-back. Bring a slice of Marty Supreme’s after-hours energy home with our latest edit.

Marty Supreme

Design isn’t only about how things look - it’s about how they make us feel. The texture of ceramics, the weight of fabrics, the play of light across a room. Design for the Senses is an exploration of atmosphere and detail: pieces that engage touch, scent, and sound to create a home that feels alive. Considered pieces, made with integrity, that invite a slower, more tactile way of living.

Design For The Senses

For the homebody who finds joy in the simple pleasures of staying in, discover gifts that make every moment at home feel special. Think glassware for slow Sunday breakfasts, soft throws for cozy evenings, and candles that fill the room with calm. Each piece is crafted to bring warmth, beauty, and intention to their home - perfect for those who treasure quiet rituals and thoughtful design. Whether it’s for a friend, a loved one, or yourself, these gifts celebrate the art of slowing down and finding comfort in the everyday.

Gifting For Homebodies

In 1967, architect Junzo Yoshimura designed the Shonan-Chigasaki House - a quiet landmark of Japanese modernism, where clean lines and soft light frame views of the sea. Nearly sixty years on, its spirit lives on in a sky-blue carpet, originally custom-made for the home and recently revived by @yamagatadantsu from the archives.
The carpet’s return is more than a restoration - it is a dialogue across generations, a preservation of Yoshimura’s vision and a reminder that modernism was always about more than form. It was about feeling. About atmosphere. About the way a single color can hold the memory of a place.
Inspired by the quiet elegance of Japanese mid-century modernism, we’ve curated an edit that captures its spirit below!

The Shonan-Chigasaki House

Bring your holiday home and recreate the comfort of your favourite hotel bathroom. As the season shifts, the bathroom becomes more than a place of routine - it’s a space to pause, restore, and indulge in stillness. Autumn calls for long, candlelit baths and revitalising showers that reset both body and mind. We’ve curated an edit of calming textures, thoughtful details, and timeless accents to help transform your bathroom into a retreat from the everyday. Think soft towels, sculptural accessories, and elevated essentials that invite you to slow down and savour the ritual. Your sanctuary starts here!
