2 Suzani style
New at Crate & Barrel is this embellished cushion in a great shade of periwinkle blue, embroidered in jewel bright colours with a pattern reminiscent of the Turkish/Suzani style you'll be seeing more of this season. Perfect, we think, for jazzing up an armchair.

3 Hand made
The Turkish-inspired fashion and lifestyle boutique Anjelique.me is now stocking decorative items by Istanbul-based designers Sasanna. Established in 2004, Sasanna Designs creates high-quality handcrafted items for the home and office, as well as jewellery and other gifts. We love this brass-plated Hand of Fatima tabletop feature.

4 On the move
Nomadism is at the heart of the new Kenzo Maison collection. With its carefully-crafted furniture, fabrics and accessories, Kenzo Maison has created a collection that focuses on movement and the capacity to interconnect and communicate. The Yoshi and Rabat poufs (pictured) capture the nomadic ideal perfectly but would make a stunning addition to even the most permanent of spaces.
The new Kenzo Maison collection is now available at Aati Zabeel Road
5 Eastern accents
The new collection of Armani Casa Exclusive Textiles by Rubelli is available now. Inspired by the exoticism of Oriental culture and the poetic influences of the East, the collection presents an imaginary voyage between East and West. Rich damask patterns and decorative features are given a geometric twist, while trademark Armani Casa features - horizontal stripes and damier effects - give traditional patterns a new, contemporary look.
