Our editor-in-chief, Ryan Willms, was recently profiled on the beautifully exhibited interiors website, Freunde von Freunden. As part of an ongoing series with Vitra, the feature showcases Willms’ home, which reflects a cohesive sense of design that utilizes a number of their pieces alongside Alvar Aalto designed Artek furniture, Vitsoe 606 shelving, and a variety of other items that are personal to him. On top of the intimate view of his home, he also offers a glimpse into some his favourite activities and places to visit in Vancouver.
