Spring is all about life beginning anew—so why not use this season as an excuse to rejuvenate your home? Perhaps you’re eager to entertain with COVID cases decreasing, or perhaps, after a long cold few months, you want to upgrade your patio, lawn, or balcony to the fullest. Or maybe you’re just engaging in a good old-fashioned spring cleaning, and need to replace worn and torn items with something new. Whatever the reason behind the desire for rejuvenation, you’re in luck: the past month has seen a set of notable home decor launches that are perfect to spruce up your space.
Below, our favorites.
Houses and Parties “Maybe It Was Memphis”
Rebecca Gardener’s Houses and Parties goes extra ’80s with her new home decor launch, “Maybe It Was Memphis,” which pays homage to the bright, geometric postmodern Italian movement founded by Ettore Sottsass. Think neon color-blocked plates, vintage squiggly-handle vases, bowls with turquoise spherical feet, and colorful corkscrews designed by Sottsass himself. Cue up an episode of Saved by the Bell and start shopping.
Mary Katrantzou and The Rug Company
Designer Mary Katrantzou took inspiration from her archival prints for her new collection with The Rug Company, “A Life in Pattern.” As the name suggests, her home decor designs are sophisticated and psychedelic. One, for example, features a swirling ombre-marble pattern while another acts as an homage to Abstract Expressionism’s splatter paint technique.
Moda Operandi’s Tabletop Edit for Save Venice
Moda Operandi embraces high-design dolce vita with their new Save Venice tabletop edit, which supports the preservation of Venetian landmarks and heritage. It includes an all-star list of Italian artisans, including Nasonmoretti, Stories of Italy, Venini, Tessitura Bevilacqua, Porte Italia, Maurizio Confortin, Wave Murano, and Laguna B, as well as specialty items from in-house home line Moda Domus. "We looked to our Venetian artisans, each with their own distinct talents, to create this capsule that reflects the rich artistic traditions of the city. The resulting Trunkshow is giving us Park Avenue in the ’80s, Bonfire of the Vanities vibes—it’s over-the-top opulence, Italianate style,” Moda Operandi founder Lauren Santo Domingo says of the collection.
Hum London Lampshades
Hum London’s brand is founded on ideals of intimacy and intricacy: each lampshade is fastidiously hand-painted by Hermonie Gee from a template given to her by her sister, Ellie. Their new collection features a series of patterns that are unified in their romantic earth-tone cheeriness: think a plum zebra print, a rose gingham, and one gemstone-blue border.
Gabriella Crespi for Gubi
Danish furniture company Gubi revives an archival outdoor furniture collection of cult Milanese furniture designer, Gabriella Crespi, who counted the house of Dior, Audrey Hepburn, and Princess Grace of Monaco as her ardent fans before she ceased production in the 1980s. Titled “Bohemian 72,” Crespi’s rattan-and-lacquer couches, ottomans, and lamps were originally designed from her sunny city patio in 1972 for private clients. Now, Gubi is making them available for interior aficionados everywhere: “It marries her love of sculptural forms and her curiosity about Eastern cultures and philosophies which she honed over years of travel,” her daughter Elisabetta told Vogue. “It is a truly timeless collection that is just as impacting and significant today as it was in 1972.”
