WHAT HAS INFORMED AND INSPIRED YOUR INTERIORS STYLE? HAS THIS EVOLVED OVER TIME?
In terms of information, I travel a huge amount and with something of a photographic memory, I take mental snapshots of every place I visit. They stay in my head like a catalogue so that I can retrieve the information when I need it. I’ll admit, my memory isn’t quite what it used to be, but it’s still strong. In terms of style, it is constantly evolving. It is versatile. I am a big believer in design to suit the environment. Same with fashion. So the desire to create spaces that will last and that I will love more with time is paramount to me because I prefer less change as time goes on.
IS YOUR HOME A SANCTUARY OR DOES IT DOUBLE AS A WORK SPACE?
A sanctuary to spend quality time with family and friends. The reality is, it’s also a work space. With Europe’s time difference, I’m on my computer until late many nights after my kids go to sleep.
