IN FULL BLOOM Welsh artist Cedric Morris was a rare polymath: a major figure of the British modern movement who also achieved renown as a serious gardener. The combination of talents served him well, allowing him to portray plants and landscapes he was intimately familiar with through a Surrealist and Cubist lens. The vivid, resplendent results—like May Flowering Irises No. 2, 1935, at left—will be on display through July 22 at the Garden Museum in London (gardenmuseum.org.uk). Morris’s interest in plants also led him to travel extensively collecting specimens—and, thankfully for us, painting along the way. “Cedric Morris: Beyond the Garden Wall,” at Philip Mould & Company (philipmould.com), is a concurrent retrospective that gorgeously documents the wanderings of an artist who mentored Lucian Freud, was said by contemporaries to rival…

Coco Chanel had her Verdura cuffs; Bunny Mellon, her Schlumberger bangles; Daisy Fellowes, her Tutti Frutti Cartier. When a woman of style and substance blazed a fashionable trail through the salons, red carpets, and famous fetes of the 20th century, she often did so wearing a complement of jewels, leaving a glittering legacy in her wake. The styles associated with these boldface names continue to be influential today. Updated, gem-studded versions of the Maltese Cross cuff Duke Fulco di Verdura designed for Chanel in the 1930s are still sold by the house. Like the other evolutions shown here, they’re tailor-made for an entirely new generation of trailblazers.…

A REAL ESTATE TOUR THROUGH CONNECTICUT’S LITCHFIELD COUNTY sealed the fate of interior designers Michael DePerno and Andrew Fry. Upon entering a neglected 1910 cottage, DePerno opened a jammed window, only to watch it crash to the ground. “The broker told me, ‘This is your house. You’re the only one who will restore it properly,’” DePerno says. “He was right. I knew I had to take care of this place and return it to its simple elegance.” Early in his career, DePerno proclaimed his aesthetic loyalty to clean lines, superior craftsmanship, and natural palettes. His former New York shop, Hope & Wilder, had style cognoscenti flocking to SoHo for its artful mix of white-painted furniture, handwoven baskets, and decanters blown in glass as thin as plastic wrap. While that store…

There was a time not long ago when fabric had its limits. Each type, whether silk, cotton, linen, or wool, was best suited to its own purpose and place in a room. Any textile that could come close to surviving a lot of wear and tear—from sun, humidity, pets, kids—was not something anyone wanted to touch, much less cozy up to. And using one of those fabrics to upholster a vintage Louis XVI chair or dress a delicate iron-framed daybed? That simply would not have been done. But when it comes to deploying fabrics in the decoration of houses today, Sunbrella has changed the game. Its fabrics combine the elegance of traditional textiles with an unparalleled level of durability, while each new collection is filled with colors of wonderful nuance…

A picturesque setting is matched by jaunty printed fabrics, fine porcelain, mouth-blown crystal, and leather and wicker accessories. Summer never felt so chic. it wouldn’t be summer without lobster rolls, fireworks, and a dose of red, white, and blue. Few brands mine that palette as well as Ralph Lauren Home: After all, the company’s founder made denim as chic as haute couture, put polo on the map, and turned the all-American allure of New England into a symbol of style. That design acuity was on full display on Nantucket, where the brand hosted an intimate cruise and beachside dinner at the Wauwinet resort to unveil its latest alfresco entertaining accessories. The evening began aboard a classic yacht—Hinckleys like this one have been handcrafted in Maine for 90 years—a fitting backdrop…

IT TAKES COURAGE TO WIND UP WITH A HOUSE that’s just right. After all, a chorus of experts stands at the ready to tell you your house should look like this, be built like that, and feature all sorts of extraneous elements for the sake of “resale value.” Fortunately, Jim and Gina Bremner had courage in spades, as well as a clear sense of just what they were after: a serene and simple ground-level house that did not need to be rebuilt. Says Gina: “I wanted the inside to connect seamlessly with the outside”—an increasingly rare find in southwest Florida, where zoning laws require that all new construction be elevated. It took five years, but they found a house worth renovating in Naples, Florida, then turned to designer and longtime…

Furnish it with plush seating, plump pillows, and plenty of chintz and wicker, and while away an afternoon or two.

Isle of Enchantment When Elsie McNeill Lee took over the textile company Fortuny after founder Mariano Fortuny’s death in 1949, the woman who would become La Contessa Gozzi remade the factory on Venice’s Giudecca island into an Eden. Gozzi built an in-ground pool—one of only four in Venice today—and replanted the garden, part of a onetime convent dating to the 15th century. By the time the Riad family took over the business from Gozzi in 1988, the property had fallen into disrepair. It was Fortuny fabrics that inspired the recent restoration: “We looked to plants and flowers in the patterns as a way of extending the showroom outdoors,” says Mickey Riad. Wisteria drips from stone arches, wildflowers peep from broad lawns, mist creeps in from the water on three sides.…

when summer is in full bloom, event designer Keith Robinson sets the stage for an intimate outdoor meal below the branches of a 150-year-old magnolia tree at Redwine Plantation, his Georgia estate. “People feel a kind of reverence beneath the arms of that tree,” Robinson says of the hushed and dappled 60-foot “room” sheltered under the leaves and blossoms. “It’s one of my favorite places to host guests during the warmer months.” The magnolia’s location, right off the kitchen, makes it convenient for entertaining and betrays a bit of social history. “In the time before air-conditioning in the South, it was customary to plant magnolia trees close to your home because the shade provided a cool place for the ladies of the house to sit,” he explains. To conjure a…

THE NATIONAL HEIRLOOM EXPO in Sonoma County, California, is a throwback to the county fairs that used to proliferate across the country a century ago: dahlias arrayed like fireworks vying for Best in Show; gourds and pumpkins of all speckles, stripes, and hues; a confetti explosion of tomatoes. But amid the pickup trucks, country bands, and cowboy hats, you can also find kombucha on tap, Vietnamese street food, and Mexican ice cream, along with a Pure Foods philosophy that’s at the forefront of this century. Founded in 2011 by Jere Gettle, the owner of Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds and a pioneer in the heirloom movement, the festival champions heritage strains and breeds threatened by commercial farming. “Since the 1960s, variety has disappeared from the grocery store,” Gettle says. “Peaches that…
