The 45-year-old Venezuelan, who\u2019s now based in Porto Alegre, Brazil, started making colorful patterned pasta in 2019 in homage to his favorite artist, Carlos Cruz-Diez, a Venezuelan known for his chromatic relief murals who died that year at the age of 95. Putting his Ph.D. in chemistry to good use, Rivillo experimented with natural dyes (such as spirulina and paprika) to find those that would maintain their hue even when dried or cooked and posted his work on Instagram. Now, Rivillo, who recently left his job as a nanotechnology researcher to pursue the project full time, sells his creations (from $40 for 2.1 ounces, plus shipping). And he isn\u2019t the only noodle maker playing with psychedelic designs. The Sydney, Australia-based artist Jennifer Tran, 39, makes candy-striped rigatoni and checkerboard tortellini, as well as floral-print pasta sheets that look more like textiles than food. And in California, Fiona Afshar, 57, takes visual inspiration from her local farmers\u2019 market and from her Malibu garden, adorning paccheri with yellow and purple blooms and ravioli with tiny images of lemons and limes. Employing highly pigmented ingredients like beet powder, activated charcoal and harissa, she sells multivariety gift boxes (from $95) through her website. The only problem with these Technicolor carbs? They\u2019re almost too pretty to eat. Says Rivillo of his pasta: \u201cPeople take a long time to get the courage to cook it.\u201d <a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/david_rivillo\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">@david_rivillo<\/em><\/a><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">; <\/em><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/_papetal_\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">@_papetal_<\/em><\/a><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">; <\/em><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fionaspasta.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">fionaspasta.com<\/em><\/a>. \u2014 <em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Ella Riley-Adams<\/em><\/p>\n<hr class=\"css-7ad88g e1mu4ftr0\" \/>\n<h3 class=\"css-1dj47cq e1gnsphs0\" id=\"link-67dfb9ad\"><span>The Thing: An Illuminated Totemic Sculpture From Klove Studio<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"css-79elbk\" data-testid=\"photoviewer-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"css-z3e15g\" data-testid=\"photoviewer-wrapper-hidden\"><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"photoviewer-children\" class=\"css-1a48zt4 e11si9ry5\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-medium css-1vxyf6h e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"css-1xdhyk6 erfvjey0\">\n<div class=\"css-nwd8t8\" data-testid=\"lazy-image\">\n<div data-testid=\"lazyimage-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"css-xaa95i ewdxa0s0\"><span class=\"css-f4bmw8 e1z0qqy90\"><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Photograph by David Chow.

Prateek Jain and Gautam Seth, a couple in their 40s who founded Klove Studio 17 years ago in New Delhi, take a very different approach. Their Totems Over Time are created to gently illuminate not merely a room but the ways in which so many primordial civilizations employed surprisingly complementary motifs, no matter how geographically or historically distant from one another they might have been. Each of the gigantic symmetrical sculptures, made of blown glass, metals and stones including onyx, is a mind-bending tour \u2014 from classical Rome and aboriginal India to Aztec and Native American lands. In Totem of Beauty, which is nearly 10 feet tall, jade-dipped laurels give way to a third eye, a pair of lit buffalo-like horns and arrows tipped with small glass globes. \u201cSome people say it seems futuristic, as though it were sent from another planet,\u201d says Seth. \u201cWhich is proof to us that the symbols are truly eternal.\u201d <em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Klove Studio Totem of Beauty, price on request, <\/em><a class=\"css-yywogo\" href=\"https:\/\/klovestudio.com\/\" title=\"\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">klovestudio.com<\/em><\/a><em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">.<\/em> \u2014 <em class=\"css-2fg4z9 e1gzwzxm0\">Nancy Hass<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<hr class=\"css-7ad88g e1mu4ftr0\" \/>\n<h3 class=\"css-1dj47cq e1gnsphs0\" id=\"link-3665dd94\"><span>An Amsterdam Hotel Inspired by the Colors of Its Surroundings<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div class=\"css-79elbk\" data-testid=\"photoviewer-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"css-z3e15g\" data-testid=\"photoviewer-wrapper-hidden\"><\/div>\n<div data-testid=\"photoviewer-children\" class=\"css-1a48zt4 e11si9ry5\">\n<figure class=\"img-sz-large css-hxpw2c e1g7ppur0\" aria-label=\"media\" role=\"group\">\n<div class=\"css-1xdhyk6 erfvjey0\">\n<div class=\"css-nwd8t8\" data-testid=\"lazy-image\">\n<div data-testid=\"lazyimage-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"css-vwjwk3 ewdxa0s0\"><span aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"css-1p4ky1 e13ogyst0\">One of the 14 guest rooms at the De Durgerdam hotel, just outside Amsterdam.<\/span><span class=\"css-f4bmw8 e1z0qqy90\"><span><span aria-hidden=\"false\">Studio Unfolded<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn\">\n<div class=\"css-53u6y8\">\n<p class=\"css-at9mc1 evys1bk0\">The De Durgerdam, a 14-room inn housed in a newly restored 17th-century building, sits five miles east of central Amsterdam in the historic fishing village of Durgerdam. Here, new technology \u2014 solar panels, sustainable heating, a recirculating water system \u2014 is paired with bespoke furniture inspired by the surrounding architecture, and there are nods to local folk traditions like sky blue-colored closet interiors, whose hue is thought to repel insects. The walls of the restaurant, De Mark, which serves modern European comfort dishes \u2014 pan-fried local fish with sauerkraut, mussels, XO sauce and beurre blanc; a vegetarian take on steak tartare made with slow-dried tomatoes \u2014 match the colors of the nearby IJmeer lake, which also inspired the arrangement of the blankets in the bedrooms: Velvet throws in a variety of jewel tones are tossed, rather than neatly folded, atop the beds.
