FREY YAY! Design devotees are flocking to Basel, Switzerland, for the big art fair, as well as the 10th anniversary of Design Miami/ Basel from June 15-21. The latter’s talks include Patrick and Pierre Frey of the eponymous maison for luxury wallpaper and fabrics regarding the historical influence on contemporary textiles. To celebrate its milestone, Design Miami/ collaborated with Frey for Chromatropic, a camouflage print-inspired collage culled from an archive that spans 7,000 designs. Fashion label Hentsch Man created a limited-edition anorak, hat and sneakers, while J. Crew added a pocket square in the custom, fun fabric. Purchase them, along with other curated clothing, accessories and souvenirs, at a pop-up shop in the fair’s Hall 1 Süd with a theme that explores the connection between Basel and Miami.

THREE SPREE They say the third time’s a charm, so Tomas Maier should be set in launching his latest Miami location at Bal Harbour Shops after gentrifying Sunset Harbour and the Miami Design District more than a decade ago. His 1,800-square-foot boutique feels less cluttered and industrial than his former spaces here, with organic décor of natural oak floors and 20th-century furnishings by Danish master designer Ole Wanscher. From his signature collection, Maier’s oiled denim dress (pictured here) is the perfect everyday item for summer. There are several long-term collaborations, too, like his three custom candles for diptique in scents such as Palm Beach, a breezy, floral fragrance that conjures up the island’s famed gardens and fresh-cut grass. He also teams up with Serge Lutens (perfume), Florian (necklaces) and Osanna Visconti (jewelry).
