Andile Dyalvane

Ceramics · Cape Town, South Africa

His solo show iNgqweji ran at Southern Guild Cape Town from November 2025, the same year he won at South Africa's National Arts and Culture Awards.

Andile Dyalvane treats clay as an ancestral language. Raised herding cattle in the Eastern Cape village of Ngobozana, he scores his large vessel forms with marks drawn from Xhosa tradition, turning pots into carriers of memory and healing. His work now lives in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Vitra Design Museum, yet it never loses its connection to the soil it came from.

Heidi Caillier brings her vintage-leaning eye to rugs and pillows for Joon Loloi

Heidi Caillier's collection with Joon Loloi runs to rugs and pillows built on the rootedness that defines her interiors, all vintage influences, nostalgic patterns and deliberately expressive pattern play, with the Calhoun, Forrest, Adeline, Dawes, Mayla, Spruce, Scarlett, Stella and Savannah rugs sitting alongside pillows named Allie, Ozzie, Annette, Deanna, Wally, Lizzy, Page, Izzy, Magda, Eliza and Penelope. The useful part for a working scheme is that the floor and the soft furnishings were drawn together by one hand, so two or three patterns can run at different scales in the same room and still agree with each other, which is the hardest thing to fake when rugs and cushions are sourced from different suppliers.

Paul Montgomery turns Odilon Redon's Domecy panels into a mural collection

The designers at Paul Montgomery came back from the Musee d'Orsay set on the decorative panels Odilon Redon painted for the dining room of the Chateau de Domecy-sur-le-Vault in Burgundy, among his most radical compositions and the point where his work moved from the ornamental into the abstract, and Redon translates that dream state into floating flora, abstract trees and organic forms suspended against an endless horizon rather than any specific place. A mural like this earns its keep in the room that has neither a view nor much architecture, because it supplies both at once, and the Japanese influence in the original keeps the palette soft enough to sit under existing joinery instead of fighting it.

Phillip Jeffries marks 50 years with Enchanted Garden, a summer of hidden botanicals

The wallcovering house marks its fiftieth year with a summer release built on the idea that delights hide in plain sight, running from the painterly Veranda Vines, Lush Layers and Heirloom Bloom through to textured Wellington Weave and Manor House grasscloths and a PVC-free Emeline.

Milton & King redraw six animal markings as painterly pattern in Wild at Heart

Six designs drawn from zebra, leopard, snake, fawn, feather and cowhide markings, each hand-rendered with painterly texture rather than photographed, and run across wallcovering, vinyl, grasscloth and fabric so a single pattern can move from a feature wall to a wipeable one to an upholstered chair.

KaschKasch hand-glazes Villeroy & Boch's Antao Earth basins in three ground tones

Cologne studio KaschKasch has added surface-mounted, dewdrop-shaped basins to Villeroy & Boch's Antao collection, finished in a hand-applied Artisan Glaze developed with the brand's glazing lab at Mettlach that deliberately lets colour and texture vary across each piece, in three nature-drawn colourways called Sand, Terra and Smoke. Coloured sanitaryware usually means committing to a statement, so a basin whose glaze reads as a soft, slightly uneven earth tone is the easier specification, and because it is built to mix with the existing Antao fittings the rest of the bathroom scheme still holds together.

Vaughan's Chelsea capsule hides rechargeable technology inside cast brass

Vaughan's Spring/Summer 2026 season leads with Chelsea, a debut trio of portable rechargeable table lamps (Enborne, Tisbury, Baybridge) with the battery and an integrated dimmer concealed in solid cast brass bases, plus an optional charging base in brass or bronze. It solves the perennial problem of wanting lamplight on a console, an island or a restaurant table where there is no socket, without resorting to something that looks like a gadget.

Ginny Macdonald takes Lulu and Georgia to the Lancashire countryside with On Holiday

Macdonald's third collection for Lulu and Georgia draws on her Lancashire roots and her life between England and California, with turned legs and spindles on the Adlington daybed and Farington floor lamp, sculpted oak on the Darwen chair, and scalloped edges on the Longton mirror and Newburgh sideboard. The pieces are named after Lancashire towns and read as gentle English cottage rather than full country house, which makes them easy to slot beside a client's inherited furniture without the room turning into pastiche.

Vitra reissues Verner Panton's clip-together cube menagerie for his centenary

Marking the centenary of Panton's birth, Vitra and Verner Panton Design have re-edited his 1970s Pantonaef system as the Panton Cubes, four kits of square frames that clip into cubes and take coloured or chrome panels to build a duck, a flamingo, a cat or a giraffe, now in glossy and mirrored finishes rather than the original matte, launching at Tramshed in Shoreditch during the London Design Festival from 12 to 20 September.

The 1970s Italian revival hardens into a year of real reissues

Wallpaper* has gathered the year's 1970s Italian reissues into one read, running from Vittorio Varo's Cigno chair for Visionnaire and Lodovico Acerbis's Parioli cabinet through Ernesto Gismondi's Sintesi and Gae Aulenti's Alcinoo for Artemide, Pierangelo Gallotti's T35 Trio, Cini Boeri's Papero for Codiceicona, Marzio Cecchi's Fachiro for Gufram and Elio Martinelli's Pallino, down to Joe Colombo's taps for Mamoli, with Paola Antonelli framing the decade as still great but carrying an undertone of anxiety. For a working designer this is the useful kind of trend piece, because every named piece is back in production rather than hunted at auction, so the seventies look can be specified with a lead time and a warranty instead of a dealer and a gamble.

Realistic AI renderings now have to be labelled in the EU

Article 50 of the EU AI Act came into force on 2 August, and lawyers at Addleshaw Goddard tell Dezeen that realistic AI visualisations of buildings and interiors are likely to fall under its deepfake definition, meaning they must be clearly marked as AI generated or AI modified, with fines running to 15 million euros or 3 per cent of turnover.
