Night Indigo Towel

$60.00

Linking up once again, sportswear giant adidas and skateboarding darling PALACE present a collection of summer-ready apparel and accessories inspired by retro football designs. While the terry tracksuits and jersey-like tops are alluring, it’s the dark monochromatic towel that makes the biggest statement. The plush 100% cotton towel bears PALACE’s distinct Tri-Ferg logo in a deep night indigo, and will contrast with the lighter, brighter beach towels populating this summer.

Cast Aluminum Charcoal Grill and Smoker

Otis Lamp

$400.00

East London’s Nocturne Workshop builds one-of-a-kind lighting solutions from responsibly sourced materials. Our favorite from their four-piece lineup (each named after a different musician) is the Otis Lamp: a subtly divergent tabletop piece fashioned from a rippling aluminum shade, a sturdy nickel-plated brass neck and an oiled oak baseplate. Because each lamp is made by founder Simon Day himself, bespoke finishes and custom colors are available upon request. Price is in GBP.

Cosmic Yuzu ‘Terrazzo’ Soap

$14.00

Who knew that soap scraps could create even more beautiful soap? We’ve long loved Maine-based Wary Meyers’ artsy striped soap bars that bring the yacht-side sea breeze or Japanese cherry blossom right to the bathroom sink. Linda and John Meyers have been experimenting with soap scraps, and the result are terrazzo-like bars that evoke the work of designer Shiro Kuramata—who created his own special terrazzo by embedding colored glass in concrete. The visually stunning bars are available in two shades/scents: Cosmic Yuzu or Astral Shower.

Animals Are Delicious

$18.00

By Dave Ladd and Stephanie Anderson, “Animals Are Delicious” isn’t as brutal as one might think. In fact, the kids’ book explains three of the longest food chains within the animal kingdom—in a bright and playful way. Each food chain (terrestrial, avian and aquatic—our favorite is the underwater iteration) is given its own tactile foldout, so kids can exercise several senses at once.

Sparkling Rosé
