For Tiffany Thompson of Duett Interiors, symbiosis is vital. The spaces she creates are a genuinely collaborative effort between designer and client. "It really isn't about me," Thompson says, "but about how my work can inspire others to be the best version of themselves." Founded in 2019, her firm based in Portland, Oregon-has crafted cozy, livable interiors for families from Minnesota to Miami. Pro athletes and sporting-goods institutions have become her most loyal clients, as she's designed offices for Nike and homes for NBA stars like D'Angelo Russell. Later this year, she'll be expanding her profile with the release of a line of furniture and homewares. duettinteriors.com
UCHRONIA - photographed by Matthew Avignone
Radioactive hues are deployed like neutrals in the work of Uchronia (see page 62), the Paris-based interior and furniture design studio founded by Julien Sebban (pictured at left, with his partner Jonathan Wray) in 2019. "We're not afraid of anything that could be seen as kitsch or passé," Sebban says. "We try to reveal the extraordinary in the underappreciated." Uchronia has brought its zest into historic interiors like Forest restaurant at Paris's Musée d'Art Moderne and more. Their collaborations with decorative arts stalwarts like silk manufacturer Prelle meld the old with the new, making an argument for how the past can be zhuzhed to remain exciting and fresh. uchronia.fr
