Charleston Daily is a concept in community. Its mission is to promote, assist, and celebrate in everything Charleston, South Carolina. By partnering with businesses, community leaders, volunteers and events, we are spreading the love that is Charleston.
As this city continues to grow and prosper, we want to help spread the message to all about how wonderful this community is.
Charleston is about the people, community, water, land, history, heritage and the true southern warmth it brings with each and every day.
This summer, Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams is turning up the volume with their latest release, teaming up with the beloved band Goose for a limited-edition flavor: Goose Tracks.
Currently out on their summer festival tour, Goose is having a moment—and now they’re stepping into legendary territory with a signature ice cream flavor of their own. Goose Tracks is a reimagining of the classic black raspberry chip, made richer with juicier berries like red raspberries and blackberries, and layered with bittersweet chocolate flakes. It’s equal parts nostalgic and fresh—like hearing your favorite song come alive on stage for the very first time.
Starting June 24, fans in Charleston can find Goose Tracks in local Jeni’s scoop shops and online at jenis.com. This flavor marks the latest in Jeni’s lineup of creative collaborations and celebrates the joy of two universal languages: music and ice cream.
And the summer magic doesn’t stop there—Jeni’s has just kicked off the first half of its Super Fun Times flavor drop, a bold and vibrant lineup designed to capture that carefree, kid-in-a-candy-store energy. (Images here).
Think: ice creams that taste like burning your homework. Racing shopping carts through the grocery store parking lot. Nights that stretch just past curfew, and mornings that don’t start until noon. These flavors channel the thrill of the first day of summer—the kind of wide-eyed, pocket-full-of-quarters excitement that promises nothing but pure, unfiltered Super Fun Times. New flavors include:
Pink Bubblegum: Wonderfully juicy and intensely fruity. Tastes like the first (and best) 30 seconds of classic gum
Toasted S’mores: Toasty vanilla bean marshmallow ice cream with gooey milk chocolate and graham cracker cookies.
Root Beer Float: Root beer ice cream with marshmallows. Tastes like the creamy, refreshing, frothy foam atop a frosty mug of root beer.
The first half of Jeni’s Super Fun Times collection is available now in Jeni’s scoop shops across Charleston and at jenis.com. More whimsical flavors are on the way later this summer.

Following the acclaim of The Pinch and Lowland, Method Co. debuts their second hotel concept for the city designed in collaboration with Morris Adjmi Architects, blending historic charm with modern details
Charleston, South Carolina (June 11, 2025) – The acclaimed hospitality company Method Co. announces the official opening of their latest project, The Nickel Hotel. Situated on Charleston’s historic King Street in partnership with renowned New York-based architecture and interior design studio, Morris Adjmi Architects, and national real estate firm Capital Square, the 50-room hotel introduces a guest experience that’s both refined and refreshing to the city, featuring elegantly-designed rooms and suites, and lively communal spaces including a lush interior courtyard, a library, private event space and listening room, guest-only cocktail bar, and soon-to-open rooftop lounge which will be open to the public.
Following the success of its sister property, The Pinch, The Nickel Hotel is a new modern boutique in Charleston’s Cannonborough neighborhood. Designed by celebrated Morris Adjmi Architects in collaboration with Method Co.’s in-house design team, Method Studios, The Nickel Hotel melds Charleston’s design traditions with contemporary influences, taking cues from the city’s historic architecture and ornate ironwork. The Nickel also refers to the property’s location on the 500 block of King Street and ultimately celebrates the idea of time well spent.
“The Nickel Hotel is located in the Cannonborough neighborhood, which is filled with great restaurants, cool coffee shops and independent stores,” says Randall Cook, CEO of Method Co. “It’s exciting to be in the center of this area with so many creatives and young people – both locals and visitors alike.”
The lobby, situated directly on King Street, is a layered, contemporary interpretation of a Southern townhome’s interiors, featuring a hand-clipped European marble mosaic entry sign, honed gray and white checkerboard honed marble floor, and hand painted porcelain plaster – found in many of Charleston’s historic buildings – on the walls and ceiling, while a large antique French tapestry hangs in the lobby.
At the heart of the hotel lies the courtyard, serving as the property’s lush living room for guests to congregate. Drawing from the European influence embedded in Charleston’s architectural DNA, the courtyard features three stories of ornate wrought iron balconies, a palette of earthy terra cottas, a prominent wood-burning fireplace and a two-tiered fountain at its center, all draped in lush greenery and bathed in soft lighting from surrounding gas copper lanterns, creating a serene sanctuary off the bustling King Street. Overlooking the courtyard on the third floor is The Parlour, a private event space and listening room complete with a selection of vinyl. The intimate space boasts a club-like atmosphere, featuring oak herringbone flooring and leather and oak shelving with a large private balcony for either informal gatherings or work meetings.
The Nickel also features multiple distinct food and beverage venues, including Bar Daniel, a private guest lounge on the second floor, named after Daniel Cannon, a carpenter who founded the Cannonborough neighborhood. Serving guests throughout the day, the lounge transitions from a quiet place for espresso to a buzzy space for late-night cocktails. Meanwhile, the top floor will be home to Rosemary Rose, a rooftop lounge and bar with 360 views of Charleston, which will be open to the public later this summer. Inspired by the sun-filled ease of the French Riviera lifestyle, Rosemary Rose will offer light bites and a curated selection of cocktails in an outdoor space furnished with hacienda-style wrought iron lounge furniture and zellige tile tables made by Moroccan artisans, while an arched bar anchors the interior, complemented by intimate dining and lounge seating with custom-designed banquettes and expansive windows.
With guest rooms designed to evoke the comforts of home, each spacious room and suite features a full-size kitchen with built-in Bosch appliances, decorative aged bronze cabinet hardware, and honed marble countertops, in addition to a dining space, lounge area, and LG washer and dryer. Method Studios custom-designed furniture for the rooms, including the beds, sofas, media credenzas, armoires, and nightstands, while additional design features such as Gubi coffee tables, herringbone oak flooring, House of Hackney wallpaper, and Nordic Knot Scandinavian rugs, complete the look. Bathrooms feature a pop of color through tonal green wall tile and hand-glazed porcelain floor tiles in an encaustic clover pattern. Guests can choose their preferred view, either of the lush courtyard or vibrant King Street, with many rooms featuring private balconies.
Right in the heart of Charleston, the Nickel is sure to become a beloved destination for locals and visitors within the vibrant neighborhood of Cannonborough, known for its innovative restaurants, cafes, and independent boutiques.

Community members have the opportunity to shape the future of the beloved landmark.
Charleston, SC, June 10, 2025 – Lowcountry Land Trust, a nonprofit committed to preserving Lowcountry landscapes and waterways for current and future generations, is thrilled to invite the community to help name the new entryway road leading into the future Angel Oak Preserve.
As part of a major effort to protect the land surrounding the tree and enhance the visitor experience at the Angel Oak, this new pervious entryway road will pass through the Preserve’s parking lot and more safely connect Bohicket and Angel Oak roads. It will lift the weight of parked vehicles off the tree’s delicate root system and create a safer, more enjoyable arrival experience. Visitors of the free Preserve will be immersed in nature from the moment they step out of their cars and during the five-minute trail walk before reaching the tree, offering a quieter, more meaningful connection to this ecologically and historically significant site. This thoughtfully designed arrival and parking experience will fade into the distance as one approaches the majestic tree and explores the 44-acre Preserve.
Lowcountry Land Trust encourages community members to submit name suggestions through anOnline Form by Wednesday, June 25.
All submissions are welcome, whether they reflect a historic event, natural elements, local culture, or are simply creative. The selected name will be submitted as part of the final road plans to Charleston County, the City of Charleston’s Technical Review Committee, and SCDOT in July for approval. The chosen road name will be announced via the Land Trust’s newsletter and social media platforms at a later date, and construction of the Angel Oak Preserve is anticipated for 2026.
“The Angel Oak is a place for communities to gather, so we’re excited to invite the community to be part of this next chapter,” said Samantha Siegel, Angel Oak Preserve director at Lowcountry Land Trust. “This has always been a community project, and it’s important to us that the community continues to have a voice in how this ecological treasure evolves.”

In the world of interior design, few names evoke the blend of tradition and fresh perspective quite like Katie Lindquist. As the founder of Katie Lindquist Interiors, she has established herself as a leader in creating spaces that are both timeless and contemporary, with a particular affinity for the Southern aesthetic. Her journey from art history and finance student to celebrated designer is as layered and thoughtful as the interiors she creates.
A Journey Rooted in Art and Finance
Katie Lindquist’s path to interior design was anything but conventional. She began her academic career at Lehigh University, where she pursued dual degrees in Art History and Finance. This unique combination gave her a rare perspective—the ability to appreciate the beauty and history of art and architecture, while also understanding the practical and financial considerations that underpin successful design projects.
Her passion for design was further kindled by experiences abroad. Studying in Italy and Prague, Lindquist immersed herself in the rich traditions of European art and architecture. She explored museums, historic homes, and antique markets, absorbing the details and craftsmanship that would later influence her signature style. These experiences instilled in her a deep appreciation for the stories that objects and spaces can tell.
Upon returning to the United States, Lindquist continued her education at the New York School of Interior Design, where she refined her technical skills and developed a keen eye for composition and detail. It was here that she began to see interior design not just as a creative pursuit, but as a means of enhancing the way people live and interact with their surroundings.
Shaping the Southern Aesthetic
Today, Katie Lindquist Interiors is based in both Summit, New Jersey, and Charleston, South Carolina. This dual presence allows Lindquist to draw inspiration from the cosmopolitan energy of the Northeast and the distinctive charm of the Lowcountry. Her work in Charleston, in particular, has made her a standout in the world of Southern design.
The Southern aesthetic is rooted in history, hospitality, and a connection to nature. Lindquist’s approach to this style is both respectful and innovative. She honors the region’s architectural heritage—think wide porches, high ceilings, and intricate millwork—while infusing each project with a modern sensibility. Her interiors are layered with textures, patterns, and colors that reflect the warmth and personality of the South, yet feel fresh and relevant to contemporary life.
One of the hallmarks of Lindquist’s work is her use of locally sourced antiques and custom furnishings. She has a knack for finding unique pieces that tell a story, whether it’s a vintage sideboard with a rich patina or a handcrafted table made by a local artisan. These elements add depth and authenticity to her projects, creating spaces that feel both lived-in and luxurious.
Lindquist also embraces the natural beauty of the South, often incorporating organic materials like wood, stone, and linen into her designs. She uses large windows and thoughtful lighting to bring the outdoors in, blurring the line between interior and exterior spaces. This connection to nature is a defining feature of Southern design, and Lindquist’s work exemplifies it beautifully.
Signature Style: Playful Sophistication
Katie Lindquist’s signature style can best be described as “playful sophistication.” Her interiors are rich in detail and texture, yet always maintain a sense of lightness and joy. She is known for her ability to make neutral palettes feel dynamic and exciting, often using pattern and subtle contrasts to create visual interest.
One of the keys to Lindquist’s success is her ability to tailor each project to the individual client. She begins every design process by listening to her clients’ needs, preferences, and stories. Whether working on a historic Charleston home or a modern lakeside retreat, she draws inspiration from the architecture, the landscape, and the client’s own narrative. This personalized approach ensures that each space is as unique as the people who inhabit it.
Lindquist’s background in art history gives her a keen eye for composition and detail. She is skilled at layering different elements—art, textiles, furniture—to create a cohesive and harmonious whole. Her training in finance, meanwhile, allows her to manage projects efficiently and stay within budget, ensuring that her clients’ visions are realized without unnecessary stress or expense.
Her interiors are designed for real life, balancing beauty with practicality. She understands that a home should be both beautiful and functional, and she pays careful attention to the flow and usability of each space. This is especially important in Southern design, where hospitality and comfort are paramount.
Celebrating the Past, Embracing the Future
Katie Lindquist’s work stands out for its ability to celebrate the past while embracing the future. She honors the traditions of Southern design—its warmth, its hospitality, its connection to nature—while infusing each project with a modern twist. Her interiors are timeless, yet always feel fresh and relevant.
Whether she’s working on a historic renovation or a new build, Lindquist brings a thoughtful, creative approach to every project. She is constantly seeking out new sources of inspiration, from travel and art to fashion and culture. This openness to new ideas keeps her work vibrant and exciting, and ensures that each project is a true reflection of her clients’ personalities and lifestyles.
A Representative of Excellence in Charleston Interior Design
Katie Lindquist Interiors is a testament to the power of thoughtful, personalized design. By blending heritage and innovation, Lindquist creates homes that are both timeless and full of life. Her work in Charleston and beyond reflects a deep appreciation for the region’s culture, while her playful, sophisticated style ensures that each space is as unique as the people who inhabit it.
For those seeking interiors that are elegant yet approachable, layered with meaning yet effortlessly stylish, Katie Lindquist offers a vision that is both rooted in the past and looking confidently toward the future. Her journey—from art history and finance student to celebrated designer—is a reminder that great design is as much about storytelling as it is about aesthetics. And in every space she creates, Katie Lindquist tells a story worth remembering.
