At Large: Introducing Scheibe Design

We had the pleasure of introducing Scheibe Design to our world last week. The father-son duo, Nate (son) and Tres (dad) have a fabrication shop just outside of Nashville where Jean met Nate on her Coast to Coast tour in 2018. She has watched him grow as a designer for over 4 years, including a stint as a lead fabricator for Colony alumni Fort Standard. Over the years, Nate would bring design ideas to Jean for feedback and this collection was born out of those conversations.

Using the swoop connecting the top of the Roebuck bench to its legs as a starting point --  Jean loved that detail, its delicacy and simplicity -- she pushed Nate to achieve those same qualities throughout. The whole collection is on view now at Colony. It's worth a visit if we do say so ourselves.

LIFE/DESIGN

At Colony we believe that the best design is that which is well loved, used and lived in. Here are some of our favorite table-toppers for Mr. B.

Pretty Playing Cards

Have you ever watched Ken Burns' National Parks docuseries? Me neither, I fell asleep. I've heard it's wonderful though, and these pretty playing cards from Parks Project benefit national park conservation.

IGWS (it goes without saying) we love a card game with or without a new deck of cards. Our Gallery Coordinator, Grace's go-to is the Russian classic Durak

Flowers for Drying

You know when cut flowers start to smell like a hot wet sock? Avoid that situation entirely by choosing flowers that work dried as well. At Colony, we have inadvertently tested out MANY flower varieties, and topping our list for self-drying flowers are eucalyptus and our Art Director Madeleine's favorite, Craspedia.

Always be snacking

We love snacks. And we're certainly not turning our noses up at a bag of pretzels. But some appetizers and homemade snacks are too easy to pass up. Colony founder Jean's current obsession are these Taiwanese Snowflake Crisps. She makes them with dried cranberries and pistachios but any nut and dried fruit combination works. Here's a recipe to get you started.

After Mary Oliver

SONG FOR AUTUMN

Mary Oliver - 2005-

Don’t you imagine the leaves dream now
how comfortable it will be to touch
the earth instead of the
nothingness of the air and the endless
freshets of wind? And don’t you think
the trees, especially those with
mossy hollows, are beginning to look for

the fires that will come—six, a dozen—to sleep
inside their bodies? And don’t you hear
the goldenrod whispering goodbye,
the everlasting being crowned with the first
tuffets of snow? The pond
stiffens and the white field over which
the fox runs so quickly brings out
its long blue shadows. The wind wags
its many tails. And in the evening
the piled firewood shifts a little,
longing to be on its way.

Dream Home by Brian Kaspr

Colony is thrilled to be showcasing artist and designer Brian Kaspr’s latest installation, Dream Home, painted remnants pulled from a house slated for planned demolition. The installation serves as the sole memento of an ambitious creative process spanning the course of seven days. A journey of creation and destruction, the first four days saw the of the house a blank canvas, where Kaspr and his team covered every square inch of surface area with the artist’s trademark exuberant neon brushstrokes and paint splatters; the remaining three days witnessed the unraveling of it all.

Dream Home opens November 10, 5-8 PM and runs through the month of November.

New Work from Studio Paolo Ferrari: Editions 4

A continued exploration in form and proportion, Studio Paolo Ferrari's Editions 4 features a wide range of materials from hand-formed wrought-iron frames to glossy lacquered finishes. Set against our white brick walls, the Lido's sofa near-neon upholstery and Mr. B's oxblood finish strike a bold profile. While we envision these pieces to be equally successful rendered in more subdued tones, we're enjoying the celebratory hues here at Colony.
