Global Features Director Sam Cochran’s Picks

Global features director Sam Cochran blends Scandi minimalism with midcentury flair for a space that’s unmistakably clean and polished but never boring. To get the look, pair sleek, streamlined forms—a Knoll rattan side chair or a 1970s chrome chandelier, for instance—with standout pieces that don’t take themselves too seriously: a gingham ottoman, a geranium red teapot, a dance-party-ready disco ball.
