When Los Angeles–based designer Clare Vivier began decorating the 19th-century house she'd bought in her husband's hometown of Saint-Calais, in France's Loire Valley, she had a particular aesthetic in mind. “I love color and patterns but wanted something peaceful, so the intention was to create a dialogue between those two things,” she says. She wanted the house to have a blend of contemporary pieces, antiques, and textiles from heritage maisons to create a space that, much like her namesake handbag and fashion label, channeled both California fun and French sophistication.

Money can't buy happiness — but it can buy a weeklong vacation to the Amalfi Coast.

Just as we experience a new place through its flavors—the bite of a piping hot empanada, a fiery sip of rice wine—or by clapping eyes on a dramatic landscape, finally seen in person, we also get to hear it. There are the atmospheric noises, like the blare of a taxi horn on New York City’s streets or the gentle crash of the Pacific on Tahiti’s shores, that first flood our senses.
