Your home should tell the story of who you are, and be a collection of what you love brought together under one roof.

I believe your home tells a story about who you are and who you aspire to be. We represent ourselves through the things we own. I don't believe in trends. I believe in collecting things that you connect with. We should surround ourselves with things we care about, that have meaning.

Go outside! I mean, even leaves from a park are beautiful in a clear glass vase. I'd rather see that than fake anything any day.

Books are the heart of any home, and I spend hours going through books for design inspiration.

You don't need to spend a lot of money on stuff when you have amazing architecture.

As a designer, everything is always about aesthetics mixed in with functionality and having that visual appeal. But you learn fast as a new parent with an infant that if it’s not deeply practical as well, then forget about it. Style wise, I wanted to design items that would work well in any nursery - regardless of gender.

When you have a bunch of comfortable upholstered pieces, a single bronze or brass chair really turns the energy up.
