Peeling Back the Wallpaper
Paris, France – Long renowned for exquisite textiles and wall treatments, the interiors firm Pierre Frey (with multiple showrooms in the city) has expanded into furniture with standout designs like a fluid, post-modern sofa by Toni Grilo and a sculptural coffee table by Guillaume Delvigne. Don’t worry; the brand’s 90-year textile tradition is not forgotten. It’s also just revealed a stunning new collection of wallpapers, carpets and rugs, including a collaboration with India Mahdavi. pierrefrey.com

Voyeur Discretion Advised
Beverly Hills, California – The ultra-exclusive Mameg hides behind an unassuming white-brick facade on Camden Drive in the city’s Golden Triangle. Owner Sonia Eram has a keen eye — and sartorial wit — for conversational pieces, such as a gold chain necklace with a full-size dangling Champagne glass, or artisanal finds from Cosmic Wonder in Japan. Tightly curated pieces from Loewe, Jil Sander, Marni, Balenciaga and Maison Margiela lead to a dressing room showcasing a mid-century wallscape from Los Angeles’ famed Neutra house. Mameg’s 1930s building was reimagined by architects Johnston Marklee and includes a courtyard sculpture garden, landscaped by Eric Nagelmann (Lotusland), that connects Mameg to the acclaimed Michael Werner Gallery. Although the shop’s not exactly by-appointment-only, you will need to be buzzed in, which is not always guaranteed at busier times. @mameg_la

All That Glitters
Bangkok, Thailand – Shimmering like an alien starship in Bangkok’s ritzy Phloen Chit district, the new Dior Gold House fuses the fashion brand’s timeless heritage with the richness of Thai artistry and craft. A million gilded tiles cover its facade (designed to mimic Dior’s Parisian headquarters), while, inside, works by Thai designers such as Boonserm Premthada and Saran Yen Panya lean heavily on bamboo, raffia and blond wood, creating a strong sense of place. Aside from the full range of seasonal collections, the space also houses a cafe by Argentine chef Mauro Colagreco (who just earned a second Michelin star for Cote, inside Capella Bangkok across town). dior.com

On Pointe
Vicenza, Italy – Emerging Catalan designer Montse Massague says her obsession with ballerinas started when she saw the paparazzi photos of Amy Winehouse wandering the streets of Camden in her ballet shoes. Mon Massague’s handcrafted versions — spotted recently on fashionista Beatrice Borromeo — feature a unique split sole that provides both style and added comfort, making the wearer feel like an etoile throughout the day.
