  • I'm an interior designer, and I chose furniture and decor I'd pick up from West Elm right now.
  • The chain has some excellent lighting options, including the Fiona and Cleo table lamp.

West Elm offers a stunning collection of furniture and decor that merges style and function.

As a designer, I'm always on the lookout for chic, high-quality pieces, and the modern-furniture chain continues to impress me with its selection. Certain options throughout the store can elevate any room in a home when used correctly.

Here are 10 pieces I'd absolutely pick up from West Elm right now.

The Fiona table lamp is an absolute stunner.

Lighting can change the entire vibe of a space, and West Elm's Fiona table lamp is a great option.

Its ceramic base has a sculptural feel, and the linen shade adds a soft, natural touch. It's an ideal choice for a bedroom nightstand or living-room accent table.

I think the Cleo table lamp is both playful and chic.

This lamp feels like a work of art.

With its sleek base and smooth, frosted-glass cylinder, the Cleo table lamp can add warmth and a touch of glamour to a surface.

It's quite versatile, and I especially love it for bedside tables or an entryway console.

West Elm's carved-pattern nightstand will steal the show in any bedroom.

Furniture with character is a must, and this carved-pattern nightstand has it in spades. The carved-wood design adds texture and depth, making it a focal point in any bedroom.

I like that this piece is a stylish storage solution that seems well-crafted and durable.

The Cirrus pendant is a lighting statement piece.

West Elm's Cirrus pendants would look fantastic over a dining table.      Mina Lisanin

If you're looking to make a statement with lighting, I suggest trying the Cirrus pendant.

Its ethereal design with layered, frosted-glass disks gives off a soft, ambient glow. A pendant or two would look great hung from high ceilings or over a dining-room table to add the "wow" factor to a space.

Use these linen-fringe pillow covers to make a couch look even cozier.

The fringe details add some texture.      Mina Lisanin

Swapping out pillow covers is an easy way to change up your decor. I like these linen-fringe covers from West Elm that feel soft and look beautiful.

The fringe detail adds a hint of texture to the cover, and the natural fibers make it stylish and earthy. I'd use these to incorporate softness and elegance into a living space.

The floating-disks side table is an excellent accent piece.

I love a piece that feels both functional and artistic, and this side table delivers. The stacked disks create a modern silhouette that could make this table a stylish addition to any living room or bedroom.

It's the perfect size for displaying decor items or for holding your favorite book and a coffee.

This Marcus Samuelsson dining table could be the heart of any home.

This bold, versatile table is a dining room centerpiece.      Mina Lisanin

Designed in collaboration with Marcus Samuelsson, this dining table is an entertainer's dream. The bold wood grain and clean lines give it a modern, yet timeless feel — and the curved legs make it unique.

It can seat about eight people and I could see it being a focal point in a dining room, ideal for dinner parties and casual meals.

I like West Elm's Benson chair, though I'd choose the leather finish.

I like the shape of the Benson chair, though I'd choose a different finish.      Mina Lisanin

West Elm's Benson chairs — particularly the ones with a leather finish — feel like timeless investments.

A good, buttery leather chair is a classic, and the Benson silhouette's clean, curved lines make it look extra sophisticated.

I think this would be a perfect accent chair for a living room or home office.

The Laurent sectional is the ultimate lounging sofa.

West Elm's two-piece Laurent sectional feels like the epitome of modern luxury with its sleek, rounded silhouette.

The neutral color makes it easy to pair with any other decor and the plush, deep cushions seem super comfortable.

This swivel ottoman could be a playful addition to any room.

This fun, versatile ottoman is perfect for extra seating or a footrest.      Mina Lisanin

Ottomans are underrated, in my opinion, and this one is both fun and functional.

I'd use a West Elm Gumdrop swivel ottoman to add a playful, modern vibe to a living space.

The multipurpose piece is especially great for small spaces because it can be used as extra seating, a footrest, or a coffee table if a tray is placed on top.
