The Sisters Behind Y&Co
Katherine and Alexandra Yaphe love colour and pattern.
With a passion for carpets and rugs, these sisters decided to keep their family tradition alive. Katherine (left) is the designer for Oliver Yaphe rugs, and Alexandra owns Y&Co, a Toronto rug and fabric showroom. "I help Katherine with the manufacturing, but she's the more creative one," explains Alexandra. "But you say what you like and what you don't like!" adds Katherine.
