Linge Particulier & French Summer Tea Tasting
FRESH FROM FRANCE
Linge Particulier & Tea Tasting
We’re just going to say it: Linge Particulier’s French linen paired with Mariage Frères cold brew tea may be our favorite French summer duo yet. We’re sharing a few of our classic but best-selling summer pleasures from two of our most esteemed French brands: Linge Particulier and Mariage Frères.
The demand for the Linge Particulier line has been overwhelming and for good reason, these luxurious textiles are light and airy yet perform their task with effortless style. And we have good news that we are fully restocked and with new color palettes!
If you haven’t experienced Mariage Frères iced teas, now’s your chance to join us in the shop on 7/27 for a tasting or take advantage of our tea sale happening until 8/4.

Dish Towel
Linen tea towels from Linge Particulier are offered in a perfectly subdued color palette and they are super absorbent too. But what really makes them special and probably the reason they were recently featured in Remodelista is because they double as an apron! I mean, how Frenchy cute is that?

SUMMER 2019
What We're Loving This Summer
We aim to offer goods that can be used year round but come spring/summer, we can't help but be drawn to a lighter cooler palette and a more playful vibe with our accessories. Here's a round up a few items in particular that we are loving this season.
| SHOP THE FAVORITES |
Notos Print & Cyclades Vase
Notos, a limited edition print from RF. Alvarez is the perfect art piece to help usher in summer. Notos, the god of the south wind, brings warm and heavy weather, fills sailors sails on their journey home, and represents that languorous summertime where time slows down and days grow long.
Shout out to MENU Cyclades Vase for being the perfect minimalist vessel for showing off the season's best peonies.
Shell Rug
In the shape of some of the most marvelous wonders and creatures of the sea, the Shell Tufted Rug from Ferm Living can either be hung on a wall or placed on the floor. Whichever way you use them, they will leave their nautical mark on the room. Tufted by hand, the varying pile height creates a dynamic expression in the thick and cute rug.
RF. Alvarez
RF Alvarez's work is certainly getting a lot of attention these days.
In his latest collection, DESEO, antiquity, Ancient Mesoamerican civilizations and Renaissance references intermix to carve out a visual language that blends these heritages and imbues them with an iconographic modernity. We have a few pieces from the collection available and let us tell you, they are even better in person.
The DESEO collection is only available at Nannie Inez.
Shell Pot
This babe is so photogenic! The Shell Pot is our favorite accessory because it literally looks good anywhere you put it. Filled with your favorite plant (big fluffy fern) or all on its own, the pot shaped like a nautilus shell from Ferm Living mergers natural shapes and contemporary design. The matte finished exterior with glazed interior is a nice touch as well.
New Playful Kitchen Accessories We are Seriously Loving
PLAYFUL DINING ACCESSORIES
Dash of Whimsy
We are working with two clear themes of dining accessories here at the moment. Of course we are loving the new playful arrivals from HAY and Poketo both bringing the color and whimsy, which are elements we love for summer entertaining. Of course, leave it to HAY to provide us with reusable straws in a cool color palette. They come in a set of 6 so you can guarantee to never leave home without them.
FOR THE MINIMALIST
Monochrome Accessories
Just because we love color and whimsy doesn't mean we don't have time for a true minimalist vibe. The new Hawkins Confetti Bowl and Chroma Tumblers add just the right amount of color to balance out the more elegant trivets and serving spoons from Ferm Living. Oh, and hello cute new denim pot holder.

3 Days of Design
TRENDS FROM COPENHAGEN
3 Days of Design
In May, we packed our bags and traveled to Copenhagen for 3daysofdesign. We’ve had our eye on this event as it’s a newer design event that showcases a curated selection of work from a variety of creative talents – from designers, artisans and architects to producers. In essence, it’s a three day celebration that features emerging and established design brands across Copenhagen. What I found especially delightful during our three days was the opportunity to get a first look at product launches and celebrate the best of some of our design favorites in various intimate settings.
Upon arrival, we traveled by bike (the best way to see Copenhagen) to each showroom installation. The perfect May weather added an extra feeling of joy and energy. Each location had a different vibe that felt more like a party than a design preview complete with music, drinks, nibbles and design talks. No detail was spared as we journeyed from each showroom to the next. But I’ll get right to the best part: the few trends that I am eager to share with you. Some were more abstract ideas like graphic plants and others were more obvious trends like the plated stone tables — pieces that you’ll definitely see at Nannie Inez over the next few months.
Most of these trend images are very candid shots...me just snapping a quick one so not to forget something. Only after 3DD, scrolling through images did I notice...hey...there are some themes happening here.
Graphic Plants
We’ve all come to love the impact and benefits of plants in our homes and I’m generally of the mindset that more is more but what struck me about the plant situation around Copenhagen were the minimal graphic plants. Being a huge plant fan, it strikes me as funny even as I write this that there can be trends in plants but it's totally a thing. It was not the usual jungle city vibe with every open nook filled with a plant, instead fewer plants with big graphic impact.
Stone Tables
Pleated Lamp Shades
Also, if you haven’t noticed, this is one of my favorite trends. So much so that a few months ago I splurged on the Gravity Lamp by Gubi and am obsessed! The canvas shade so nicely illuminates our living room. It’s dimmable with a diffusing shade on both the top and bottom of shade which makes the light it provides so lovely and soft yet bright enough the be our main source of light in the evenings.
Copenhagen Hues
I know that winters are long and dark in Copenhagen but I imagine that spring and summer make it all worth it. If for no other reason, the light! It is so perfectly diffused and everything has a faint icy blue, light grey hue. I am convinced that anyone with a camera can point and click a perfect photo in Copenhagen. The light just begs for photography. Here are a few of my favorite moments around the city and I am thankful that even I managed a couple good ones.
Sustainability in Design
By sheer luck, I arrived at the HAY installation just in time to hear Mette Hay and George Sowden give a talk about their brand collaboration. Sowden took us through a journey of his remarkable design career beginning with his early 2D method of design where everything was designed, produced and made in-house with the process taking an eternity to bring a product to market to the present: a fast-paced operation that operates through a worldwide supply chain.
Over his career, he’s developed and launched many innovative products but what struck me most about his talk was the time he spent discussing sustainability being the responsibility of the producers and how he feels it is the designer’s job to rethink the way we use products and produce waste. The Sowden Tea and Coffee Pot being the perfect example of this ethos. The design is classic HAY and looks real good making coffee or tea, but even better, this pot reduces the need for tea bags and filters cutting down on the amount of waste produced by standard coffee and tea accessories.
Below, watch a conversation about coffee between Mette Hay & George Sowden.

Artist Statement
My work has had a growing archeological aspect to it: I study and reference forms from Antiquity, Ancient Mesoamerican civilizations and Renaissance painting to carve out a visual language that blends these heritages and imbues them with an iconographic modernity. I’m trying to find, through the blending, a sort of human thread. And the subject I explore in this series I see as one of the most basic of humanity: desire.
This series is about longing. How does it wear on the body? How does the longing body relate to its surroundings? In many ways desire is a conversation one has with oneself, it’s a wrestle with your own physicality. It’s an aching magnetism. at’s the focus of these works – not lovers intwined, not sexual acts outright – but the way desire is a wish and the way it colors the world around us.

About the Artist
RF. Alvarez is a visual artist based in Austin, Texas. Using disparate historical references, his work develops motifs and compositions that address issues of identity, culture and human commonality.
