Welcome to TGP Tidbits where we round up the happenings and our musings of the design industry each week. This week we take a look at Dormie by Olivia Erwin Rosenthal, Luke Edward Hall x The Louvre, and Nantucket by Design. Written by Natalie Aldridge.
Dormie by Olivia Erwin Rosenthal
Last year, “DormTok” took over our feeds and transformed the humble college dorm into the newest frontier of the design world, inspiring a wave of maximalist, camera-ready makeovers. We watched in awe as students turned tiny rooms into expressions of personality and style. Truly, there is nothing we love more than a great dorm room transformation. In response to the frenzy, interior designer Olivia Erwin Rosenthal has launched Dormie, a beautifully curated and refreshingly budget-friendly platform that helps students and parents design chic, thoughtful spaces without going overboard.
Dormie takes the stress out of dorm decorating with a clever, three-step approach that feels more like fun than a to-do list. First, you choose your aesthetic from over two dozen fully imagined room schemes. Next, for just $15, you can download a beautifully designed guide complete with a mood board and shoppable links to every item, eliminating the usual guesswork and sourcing overwhelm. Finally, you mix and match what you love, order only what you need, and move in with confidence knowing your space will feel polished, personal, and effortlessly pulled together.
Olivia’s interiors have recently graced the pages of Architectural Digest, and Dormie reflects the same sense of style, practicality, and charm. With her expert eye and accessible approach, Olivia has created a much-needed resource for anyone navigating the start of college life with a touch of flair.
We only wish Dormie had been around when we were trying to make our dorm rooms feel like home! Check out Dormie here and click here for additional posh dorm room inspiration from The Glam Pad.
Luke Edward Hall x The Louvre
Leave it to Luke Edward Hall to reimagine the Louvre through a lens of painterly charm and garden-party fantasy. The British artist and designer, known for his romantic sensibilities and joyful use of color, has unveiled a whimsical new capsule collection for the museum, this time inspired by the historic Tuileries Garden.
Celebrating the pleasures of al fresco living, the collection is a love letter to summer in Paris. It includes a beautifully outfitted picnic basket, melamine plates featuring playful toy sailboats on the Grand Basin, and table linens printed with an abstracted plan of the gardens. Every detail reflects Hall’s signature blend of classical influence and carefree charm.
This is not your average museum gift shop fare. With its mix of mythology, nostalgia, and a sense of joyful escapism, Hall’s collection invites us to indulge in the art of outdoor entertaining while honoring one of the world’s most iconic cultural landmarks.
We’re already imagining ourselves spreading out a chic tablecloth beneath the trees, champagne in hand. The full collection can be shopped here. Paris, anyone?
Nantucket by Design
Get ready design lovers! Nantucket by Design returns this July 14to to 17th in full hydrangea bloom. Hosted by the Nantucket Historical Association, the four-day fête gathers a polished crowd of designers, collectors, and connoisseurs for a celebration of style, heritage, and island charm.
This year’s highlight is a keynote presentation by Martha Stewart alongside celebrated landscape architect Fernando Wong, offering a blend of timeless vision and outdoor sophistication. The theme, Interwoven, beautifully complements the NHA’s current exhibition Behind the Seams: Clothing and Textiles on Nantucket, drawing thoughtful parallels between fashion, interiors, and the island’s rich history of craft.

The program includes expert-led panels, exclusive house and garden tours, and the elegant Night at the Museum gala, set against the backdrop of Nantucket’s signature gray-shingled beauty. What we admire most is how the event captures the enduring conversation between past and present, celebrating coastal design that feels both storied and refreshingly refined.
Few places do summer style with such quiet confidence. Nantucket by Design is proof that good taste, like good linen, never goes out of season. Tickets can be purchased here!
