Sleek sofas, sculptural light fixtures and more hot buys from across the West.
Marimekko’s Kumiseva print ($129) was created by artist Katsuji Wakisaka in the 1970s, depicting an abstract interplay of city blocks and farmers’ fields. Now reissued in an updated palette of fresh greens and pinks and sized as a floor cushion, it moves into the present. Kit, Calgary, kitinteriorobjects.com
The striking Black Stripe tall thrown bell ($405) by Brooklyn-based artist Michele Quan features graphic hand-painted ebony stripes on a hemp cord. Nineteen TenBoutique, Vancouver, nineteenten.ca
For their latest collection, Cole and Son collaborated with Ardmore Ceramics to produce wallpapers inspired by Africa’s exotic wildlife and lush motifs. The Narina pattern ($190.40 for an 11-yard roll) comes in six colourways, from graphic neutrals (shown) to fearless burnt orange. Through Lee Jofa, across the West, leejofa.com
