UMBRELLA + DESIGNER FABRIC
Bespoke outdoor umbrellas by Santa Barbara Designs
Designers know, but did you? Any umbrella by Santa Barbara Designs can be lined with your choice of fabric. We asked two desert style icons, Martyn Lawrence Bullard and Trina Turk, to pair their signature fabrics with one of these shades. “The fun and playful nature of my Performance Fabrics always has an exotic twist,” Bullard says, “which is the perfect pairing to these chic umbrellas, making them as unique as they are beautiful.” His Kabba Kabba print appears inside a Regency Double Decker Umbrella. “The Trina Turk for Schumacher Indoor/Outdoor fabric collection was inspired by the Palm Springs cocktails-by-the-pool lifestyle, so the prints are a natural fit for adding an extra bit of zest to a custom Santa Barbara Designs umbrella,” Turk says. “The reveal of pattern is a vibrant surprise.” Her Sunbeam print in Horizon Blue appears in a Paseo Umbrella with a PS Modern Valance.
INDUSTRIAL + ARTISANAL
XL Wood Chain Links at Super Simple
These oversized links, each a foot long, swap the cold rigidity of metal for the warmth of whitewashed wood. Hand-carved and assembled in configurations of three or five, they’re designed purely to be admired, whether stretched out as a dining table centerpiece, coiled on a console, or hung as a conversation piece. Created in collaboration with author and interior designer Hilary Robertson, each one-of-a-kind chain highlights the strength of unity, particularly in unexpected forms.

CERAMIC + FIBER
Vases by Karen Gayle Tinney at Rōam
“When I first saw her vases, I was captivated by their beauty and simplicity,” Rōam owner Romina Gil de Matos says of the Vermont-based artist’s work. “In studying them, I realized the intricacy of the workmanship isn’t simple at all. The ceramic and fiber rely on each other for structure and completeness.” Gil de Matos loves how Tinney’s “intriguing” work resonates with those who roam her space at The Shops at Thirteen Forty Five in Palm Springs. “Each vase symbolizes broader themes of connection, completion, and harmony of contrasting materials to form a unified whole.”
TIDELLI + MISSONI
Limited-edition collaboration pieces at Tidelli Outdoor Living
The Pentagramma Collection pairs Tidelli’s chairs, benches, and stools with an expressive palette by Francesco Maccapani Missoni, a descendant of Italy’s legendary Missoni family. The charismatic partnership bridges Italian design heritage and Brazilian craftsmanship while channeling Francesco’s own creative voice. Color, in his view, is like music: a language that stirs emotion. With 12 exclusive patterns, more than 20 rope colors, and wood frames in three finishes, these limited-edition designs elevate furniture into rhythmic compositions, drawing inspiration from the interplay of musical notes to produce a visual symphony of pattern, texture, and tone.
