05.01.25 The Making of by Deborah Shapiro When Sight Unseen was founded more than 15 years ago, the goal was to invite readers into the minds and studios of designers, in order to help readers understand how things are actually made.

03.26.25 Sighted by Deborah Shapiro Marimekko has long been a go-to for those seeking joyful bursts of color and pattern in their clothing, accessories, and home décor, from the oft-searched 1980s-era Dan River Tulip bedding to the ever-stylish (and, frankly, ahead of its time) gender-neutral shirting of the 1953 Jokapoika.

01.30.25 At Home With by Deborah Shapiro “If you asked a child to sketch what their fantasy chair or bed looked like, they might draw something that looks like an Oculus product,” says Alfie di Trolio, who deals vintage furniture and objects under the name Oculus and works as a set designer in London.
