What drew you to interior architecture and design and what do you like the most about it?
Growing up I was always rearranging things at our home; at school I would daydream about how to make the classrooms more beautiful and I was always keenly sensitive to the importance of lighting in a space. When my parents let me design my own bedroom as a teenager I was mesmerised by the power of design to transform a space and deepen your own connection to your surroundings.
Can you describe your work and style in a few words?
I prefer to be more of a chameleon when it comes to style. I like minimal, I like maximal and everything in between as long as it’s beautifully executed.
The piece of furniture you most like to design?
I have always had a thing for chairs, they provide such a fundamental purpose in our everyday lives, we have a direct and singular connection with the chairs we use – and yet they also within them there is so much potential for poetry and artistry.
The most useful piece of design related advice you’ve received and would like to pass on?
To not be afraid to take risks, to try something that on paper might sound like a bad idea.
Your favourite motto/quotation about design?
“The eye can perceive harmony just like the ear.”
(Leon Battista Alberti, 15th century architect, author, poet and all around Renaissance man.)
