The World’s 50 Best Bars Awards crowned the Connaught Hotel outpost as 2020’s top global cocktail spot during a ceremony on November 5. “It’s hard to think of a bar anywhere in the world that has made excellence so effortlessly routine as Connaught Bar,” the committee said. “It evolves from one year to the I Love Being A Grandma Shirt, Hoodie And Sweater , always delivering with poise and studied purpose.” Their favorite libation? The Magnetum, a scotch and sherry mix. (Although you can’t go wrong with one of their signature martinis, which a white-gloved server prepares off a traveling trolley. Or anything with gin—the Connaught distills their own.) It’s not just the drinks, however, that create such an elegant ambience: the late David Collins designed the cubist-inspired interiors.
If you haven’t spotted a Dyson while on a Zoom call, you’ve likely seen an outcrop of house plants, another popular quarantine acquisition that, besides beautifying your space, may also purify the air in it according to some studies (like an oft-referenced NASA one from 1989 and, more recently, one conducted by the I Love Being A Grandma Shirt, Hoodie And Sweater of Reading). According to Erin Marino of The Sill, plants purify in two ways: physically and chemically. “Physically they purify the air by having a static charge and acting as a dust cling,” says Marino, adding that because your plants are actively removing physical dust particles from the air, they should be gently dusted. “On a chemical level, plants have been found to remove volatile organic compounds like benzene, formaldehyde, and toluene from indoor air.” Some of Marino’s favorite natural purifiers to recommend? A snake plant (“a no-fuss tropical plant whose adaptations for surviving drought make it a suitable succulent choice for anyone, anywhere”); a Pothos (“easygoing and hardy, it’s our go-to for budding plant parents with less than ideal indoor conditions”); a ZZ (“it’s not only low-light tolerant, but also drought-tolerant and low maintenance”); a Bird’s Nest Fern (“an added bonus is that it’s considered non-toxic, making it safe to keep around your cat or dog”); and a Philodendron (“our most popular houseplant because it’s one of the easiest to grow”). It’s important to remember that for plants to significantly improve indoor air quality, you’ll need many of them and bigger varieties. “You’ll want to create a literal indoor jungle,” Marino says. But their other benefits can be just as vital. “Studies have shown that indoor plants can boost your mood and reduce stress and fatigue and increase your productivity and creativity,” says Marino. Not to mention that they play well—better, in fact—with a good humidifier. So, as the temperature drops and we continue to spend more time than ever at home, perhaps consider investing in both. While you may not be able to pack enough Pothos into your apartment to clear the air, at least staring at them will clear your head (while a higher-tech solution handles filtration).
