SPOTLIGHT: Everything We Loved at This Year’s 2026 Frieze Week in LA

Excerpt: Exhibition

A New Exhibition Featuring Florals in Every Form — And Our New Favorite Table

India Mahdavi's Project Room is where the Iranian-born interior designer puts on freeform exhibitions four times a year, and it occupies just a single storefront below Mahdavi's studio in Paris's 7th arrondissement. Yet the space, now on its 12th curatorial outing, tends to occupy an outsized, Zeitgeist-driven share of the collective design consciousness due to the quality of its exhibitions: so far, one themed "reds and tartans" (both on the upswing, trendwise), one curated by AGO Projects (Mexico City–based gallery, pretty much universally loved), and the most recent, "Foreign Flowers," which is being presented as part of the programming for Matter and Shape, a new, compact fair in the Jardin des Tuileries, designed by Willo Perron. Foreign Flowers is curated by Matter and Shape's artistic director Dan Thawley, and it investigates the unexpected dovetailing of flowers and plants with the disciplines of furniture-making, fine art, craft, and collectible design.

American Design Hot List

Announcing the 2025 American Design Hot List

Welcome to the 13th annual American Design Hot List, Sight Unseen’s unapologetically subjective award for the names to know now in American design. Founded in 2013, the ADHL serves as a guide to the US (born or based) talents influencing the design landscape in any given year, whether through standout launches, must-see exhibitions, or just our innate sense that they’re ones to watch. Considering we’ve recently changed almost everything else about the way we present Sight Unseen to the world, we decided to do things a little differently this year.
