    Designer of the Day: Nathan and Catherine Bruckner of Casalta

    Design and detail have always gone hand in hand for Nathan and Catherine Bruckner, a connection that came into focus while renovating their former Flatiron District apartment. Since launching Casalta in 2024, the pair has built a practice spanning interiors, architecture, and items for the home, guided by a belief in working with a space’s history and surroundings. Their recently launched Objects collection, a first for the studio, brings that same narrative to 14 pieces designed to fill the gaps the Bruckners found in their own interiors.

    Designer of the Day: Barry Bordelon and Jordan Slocum of The Brownstone Boys

    When Barry Bordelon and Jordan Slocum restored their own 1890s brownstone in Brooklyn, they had no plans to build a business around it. Today, the couple behind The Brownstone Boys have completed more than 30 renovations, published a book, and built a large following of design and preservation enthusiasts drawn to their approach to historic homes. Their next big move is the debut of Studio Sessions, a new quarterly series launching October 24 that brings their community into the conversations at the heart of their work.

    Jody Guralnick Finds Inspiration in Grass Pollens, Moss, and Contemporary Art

    Colorado-based artist Jody Guralnick turns her attention to the overlooked life of the forest floor in “As Close as Breath,” her exhibition at Nancy Hoffman Gallery. Mosses, lichens, molds and the branching threads of fungal mycelium are at the center of the artworks, rendered in thick acrylic impasto that rises in relief against deep, luminous oil backgrounds. “As muses go, yeast, mold, mushrooms, and lichen have a lot to offer,” she says. In The Gossip of Grasses, Guralnick invites viewers to look closer, as some forms have been painted over yet still linger beneath the surface.

    Pari Dukovic Captures Miami City Ballet’s 40th Season in “RISE”

    In photographer Pari Dukovic’s new exhibition “RISE,” attention turns to the disciplined bodies that make the art of ballet possible. Across 29 images composed with dancers of Miami City Ballet during the company’s 40th anniversary season, Dukovic isolates moments where years of repetition and effort are transformed into lightness and precise composition. “What the viewer perceives as grace is, in reality, the result of deep physical and emotional discipline,” Dukovic said. For curator and gallery owner Bruce Halpryn, the show is less about ballet than about sustained attention, repetition, and devotion.

    Ken Goldberg Brings The Outside World Indoors

    Artist and UC Berkeley roboticist Ken Goldberg’s ReBloom: Reno (2026) runs on live seismic data, sending circular “blooms” of color across the gallery whenever the ground shifts nearby. When looked at from up close, each band of color traces back to one of five landscape paintings in the Nevada Museum of Art’s collection, by Chester Arnold, Sandow Birk, Maynard Dixon, Jean LaMarr, and Phyllis Shafer, whose originals can be seen at the installation’s entrance.
