A man was arrested for allegedly breaking into the Chihuly Garden and Glass exhibition in Seattle and destroying multiple glass sculptures, causing an estimated $240,000 in damage. The suspect, Alexander Taylor Weis, reportedly threw glass at security staff and attempted to stab a guard with a shard before being apprehended by police.
Design studio Valle de Valle, formerly known as Studio Giancarlo Valle, has rebranded to reflect the equal partnership of founders Jane Keltner de Valle and Giancarlo Valle. The New York-based studio, which designs interiors, furniture, and architecture, announced the name change nearly a decade after its founding. The duo met at a holiday party 20 years ago—Jane was a style director at AD and previously at Teen Vogue, while Giancarlo worked at SHoP Architects. In 2024, they opened Casa Valle, a Tribeca gallery, and recently reissued Antoni Gaudí’s Batlló chair with BD Barcelona. Upcoming projects include designer Ulla Johnson’s Madison Avenue flagship, a Manhattan wine bar, and the transformation of a 500-acre island in the Bahamas.
