Clodagh's Choice this week: BUIKA calls her voice the voice of freedom." On a dark winter evening I play her songs that are redolent of the golden sunshine of Mallorca and the growl of flamenco to remind me of the years I lived in Spain. Her voice rasps like a mellow buzz saw, says my husband Daniel Aubry. Clodagh Buika

Much love and congratulations galore to Mrs. Bernie Gallagher, chairman of The Doyle Collection of Hotels and to Joel Freyberg, general manager of The Doyle Collection’s Washington DC Hotel, The Dupont Circle, on its re-opening on October 16th after a two-year renovation.. This is one of my most-loved projects of all time, because of the Irish connection to the Doyle family and all things Irish, and because of the delightful people we worked with on it, including Martin Brudnizki, who designed the bar and restaurant. I hope you have a chance to stay at the The Dupont Circle soon, you will enjoy it: as we say in Ireland. SLAINTE! Clodagh The Dupont Circle The Doyle Collection.

Trail in Clodagh’s collection for Koroseal Interior Products wallpaper is inspired by Clodagh’s memories of travel and time spent with her family. Here, she draws on reminiscences of a walk through a dense forest for Trail, the abstract representation of her hikes with her son through the fragrant Oregon woods. @Koroseal

The October Robb Report features a fun dream room by Clodagh. A Low-Tech Haven Clodagh My dream room is device-free, says the New York designer, who goes by one name. It’s a place to celebrate all of the senses, to incorporate all of the elements: the silence of thick stone walls and a timber ceiling and floor, with a deep bay-window seat jutting out into air and sky where two people can lounge or lie, facing each other or side by side. Clodagh, who designed the Miraval... spa in Arizona, envisions furnishing the space with an eye to the practical and the playful. There’s a wood-burning fire flanked by comfortable armchairs, a bookcase, proper reading lights, tactile textiles and a tiny fountain splashing into a stone bowl, she enumerates. Oil of sandalwood for grounding and rose for serenity create the mood for sensuality. There’s a dog bed, of course, a small wet bar and delicious things to eat. It’s a return to the analog world, a seemingly lost world right now. Children can crowd into the window seat if they detach their devices, and storytelling is encouraged. .
