Judee Kisob & Tribal Traces; Suzi Lyon & Carlyle Christopherson Album Launch

Designer Judee Kisob Frick joined us to talk about her Tribal Traces pop-up store on Gerbergässlein 10, which includes high-end home furniture and furnishings from or inspired by influences from around the African continent. Judee has a line of self-made furniture, furnishings, fashion and personal accessories called Afro Dizzy; she also sources goods from Africa to be able to offer the public a more varied assortment of wares that are socially responsible and good for the environment. Among the range on offer are not only new items, but also recycled, upcycled, re-upholstered vintage and antique pieces. Visit the store in the middle of Basel Tuesdays to Fridays from 11am to 6:30pm and Saturdays from 11am to 5pm. Listen to the interview here.
