Inspired by the power of design to frame nature's beauty and foster connection, The Conservatory is proud to announce its first partners:

• GrayBarns, a historical textile mill reimagined as a haven of refuge along the Silvermine River in Norwalk, CT featuring a 6-bedroom inn, tavern, barn and mercantile.
• hinter, modern cabins where Nordic and Japanese design coalesce in contemporary, climate-positive spaces amongst the Quebec forests that propose a slow living lifestyle
• Hill Farm by Sagra, a boutique inn and private cottages in the Equinox Mountain Valley presenting the future of agritourism in Vermont, inspired by the longstanding European tradition of farmers hosting guests at olive oil farms and wineries
• Kokos Huis, a 200-year-old farmhouse-turned-hotel in the heart of South Africa's wine country, Riebeek Kasteel, that has been thoughtfully renovated and decorated by local artisans
• The Malin, a coworking brand partner offering work-focused members clubs for professionals to work amongst high design and low distraction with multiple locations in New York City and Nashville
