What’s making our luxury list this week? The UES gets another dose of Danny Meyer deliciousness, a stunning make-over for the Tompkins Square Park basketball courts, and Diane Keaton debuts homeware designs.

CAFé SOCIETY: Daily Provisions opens on the UES

The sixth location of Daily Provisions has just opened on the corner of Madison and 96th, much to the delight of area residents. For the unfamiliar: Daily Provisions was founded seven years ago by Danny Meyer and Union Square Hospitality Group. It’s billed as an all-day café, and this particular location lives up to the name, as it is open from 7 a.m. – 9 p.m. Offerings include BECs and crullers in the morning, followed by made-to-order sandwiches, salads, and the legendary roast chicken throughout the afternoon and evening.

GLAM DUNK: Glossier refurbishes the Tompkins Square Park basketball courts

Tompkins Square Park’s basketball courts have undergone a very colorful transformation thanks to Glossier, Ghanian multimedia artist Na Chainkua Reindorf, community non-profit Project Blackboard, and the New York City Park’s Department. Drab no more — the courts are covered in a bold, colorful work described by the artist as an “unblinking eye that gazes back,” and is especially dramatic when seen from above. As background: Glossier became the first official beauty partner of the WNBA four years ago and shot a campaign featuring WNBA players on these very courts (Reindorf has also been featured in a Glossier campaign). The glam new courts are open to the public. TompkinsSquarePark.

BLAST FROM THE PAST: Herman Miller Reintroduces Archival Designs by Gilbert Rohde

“[Gilbert] Rohde set Herman Miller on its path as a pioneer of modern design and, in doing so, effectively introduced modern furniture design to the United States,” said Noah Schwarz, Vice President of Product Design for Herman Miller, on the reintroduction of several iconic pieces by the designer, who in 1932 became Herman Miller’s first design director. Rohde became enamored with the abstract art movement, specifically Biomorphism, in the 1940s, which inspired the curvaceous shapes of his designs. Four such pieces are now available for the first time in decades: the 1941 Easy chair and three styles of Paldao occasional tables. Noted Schwarz, “We believe both designs feel as relevant today as they did 83 years ago.” They’re available both in-store and online at HermanMiller.com.

ME GUSTA: Tabu debuts in Williamsburg

Tabu is a new indoor-outdoor restaurant that aims to bring the “jungles of Tulum” to Brooklyn via a menu that “pushes boundaries with modern takes on classic Mexican dishes” with regional influences ranging from Mexico City to Oaxaca and beyond. It’s the brainchild of the team behind Artesano (a Peruvian restaurant in TriBeCa), who tapped Kevin Boluarteto be executive chef. Boluarte, who is Peruvian, boasts extensive experience in both his native and Mexican cuisines, having worked at the Michelin-starred Oxomoco as well as the acclaimed Peruvian eatery Mission Ceviche. Signature dishes include Cochinita Pibil (slow cooked roasted pork), Aguachile Rojo (with fresh trout and scallops), Duck Carnitas (with mole negro from Oaxaca) and Lamb Tacos. There’s the expected extensive tequila and mescal offerings but also agave-based spirits we rarely hear about — Raicilla and Sotol — and signature cocktails including a Mole Old Fashioned and a Fermented Corn Margarita. TabuBK.com

LUCKY STAR: Diane Keaton collaborates with Hudson Grace

Hudson Grace, a San Francisco-based housewares shop founded in 2012 (and acquired by Crate & Barrel in 2019), has just dropped a collection with none other than the actor and director Diane Keaton. The Diane Keaton + Hudson Grace collection contains over a hundred pieces — from bedding to tabletop, scents and pet accessories — in a black and white color palette. It’s not her first go at the interiors rodeo, as she’s deigned lighting and fabric in the past, as well as published two design books House (2012), California Romantica (2007), and The House Pinterest Built (2017). She said the range “has heart and is inspired by items in my home. I want everything from the collection!” Priced from $18, at HudsonGraceSF.com
