home truths

DESIGN HERO?

It changes, but I’m into people like Peter Zumthor who think carefully about the sensual properties of materials.

MUST-HAVE ITEM OF FURNITURE?

An Eero Aarnio Ball chair. I like the idea of turning it to face the corner when you’re done with everyone!

WHAT SHOULD EVERY HOME HAVE?

A Kintsugi set – a Japanese-inspired way to repair things prettily. You stop being disappointed and start being excited when you break something. This is vital when living with cats.

YOUR STYLE?

Contemporary vernacular with playful and personalised interiors.

ARE YOU FORM OVER FUNCTION?

Within limits. I’ll put up with a lot of inconvenience for a pretty view, but I’m learning better balance in this regard.
