French-born artist and designer Camille Walala is known for her joyful, graphic-style street murals and love of bold colour. Since setting up her east London studio in 2009, her uplifting design projects have spanned interiors too, from a rug collection for Floor Story to Salt, an immersive Mauritian boutique hotel. We caught up with Camille to find out about her favourite colour-drenched holiday destination, Oaxaca in Mexico.
First things first, best time to go?
I visited in February last year and the weather was perfect. Not too hot, so you can spend hours walking and visiting all the amazing places Oaxaca has to offer, yet sunny so all the colours of the city pop!
Where should we stay?
The Grana B&B – it’s an old hacienda that’s been restored by two brothers with an architectural background. They work with local artisans to fill the space with beautiful objects and furniture. The food is traditional and the service second to none.
Local dishes to try?
