Katie Pike
The Art of Display

What inspires the displays in your home?

I studied Fine Art and have worked as an artist/ exhibition curator and interior designer for most of my life, so curating and displaying items is second nature to me. I like grouping items that converse with one another in some way. I only collect items for particular projects or interior spaces - I am not a collector at heart. I am inspired by travel, reading, music, colour and history.

Can you talk us through the displays in your kitchen?
