Ruqayyah Alzona Al-Baari is at her Detroit studio early in the morning. Already she's burned frankincense and myrrh, picked an atmospheric playlist and is contemplating a wall covered in design sketches. ‘You have to have your rituals before the work begins,’ she says, while examining the wall and deciding what she'll make today.

Subverting the stereotype of a cannabis dispensary – small, clinical rooms with little natural light – Rebelle's flagship store is in a 100-year-old farmhouse in the Berkshires, Massachusetts. Founded by Charlotte Hanna, who has a background in non-profits as well as a career at investment bank Goldman Sachs under her belt, Rebelle's focus has always been customer-first.
The World's Best Shops features Moro, a concept store based in Marrakech and shows how shops can look beyond their products.
People claim that Nigeria's capital, Lagos, is the biggest city in the world without a proper skate park. With a population of more than 15 million people – making it Africa's most populous city – they're most probably right.
