What role does craft and design play in your life?
I’m always looking for new and interesting things: shopping and sourcing, or just curious to see a new artist or maker.
How would you describe your interiors style?
Colourful and eclectic.
What is the best craft or design gift you’ve ever received?
A set of Sottsass graphic black and white ceramics. They look great in any interior.
What room in your home do you do your best thinking?
My living room has 25ft-high ceilings with windows that look on to nature all around. I sit in my striped Gaetano Pesce chairs and let my mind wander.
What is the first and last item you bought for your home?
One of the first were beautiful porcelain Hermès dishes that I still use every day. It seems indulgent but it’s wonderful to surround yourself with beautiful things every day. I recently got a vintage 1970s chrome lamp that I love.

Which item in your home brings you the most joy?
A beautiful 1960s Murano lamp that my mother had beside her bed. Every time I turn it on, it brings me joy.
What do you – or what would you like to – collect?
Interesting ephemera with great graphics, old invitations on beautiful paper and exhibition catalogues from over the years.
What item in your home can’t you bear to part with?
My collection of books that span art, architecture, interiors, fashion and everything else. I must be approaching 10,000 at this point.
What’s the greatest heirloom you’re most proud to pass on?
My father gave me this huge quartz crystal ball. It’s bigger than a basketball, something like a sorcerer would have. It’s beautiful and decadent.
What is your go-to gift for a host?
I love giving something useful and special, like beautiful cocktail napkins and colourful cocktail glasses.
