Sunday Seven is back with another collection of what I’m reading, loving, and bookmarking across wine, food, travel, design, and lifestyle. This edit takes us from the latest in the NYC art scene to modernist California design, the art of cocktail pairing, and a little good news about getting older.

A Modernist Dream in Santa Barbara
Design & Architecture
A little real estate eye candy: this $17 million home in Santa Barbara’s Hope Ranch reinterprets classic architecture for California living. Think travertine, steel, glass, and a 30-foot movable wall that opens the great room completely to the outdoors (I’m obsessed!).

Wellness
Finally, some good news about getting older. New happiness data challenges the idea that our best years are behind us, looking at how relationships, connection, and a sense of purpose can contribute to greater happiness and well-being as we age.
Why Everyone Is Talking About Favignana
Travel
Another gorgeous Italian island to add to the list! Favignana, just off the coast of Sicily, is getting newfound attention thanks to The Odyssey – its turquoise water, dramatic coastline, and laid-back Mediterranean charm give plenty of reasons to visit. Wish I’d known about this while we were there!
