Lately I feel I have taken a dose of a Parisian interior LOVE tonic, especially when I view such homes as Patrick Gilles & Dorothée Boissier - a perfect example of 19th c. architecture coinciding with a 21st c. lifestyle. Oh wouldn't we all love to be surrounded with such beauty in our everyday … an extremely inspirational example of a mostly aspirational interior.
I loved seeing how art was placed in these homes and how it impacted on this particular space. I believe art plays an important role, not only for its aesthetics, but for the emotional, intellectual and personal connection one can experience from it. It can make a room all that more stunning while provoking contemplation and conversation.

Just love how these gymnasium leather mats have been #REPURPOSED! #InteriorEnvironmentalist
Attracted to the tangible and tactile, it was little wonder these Parisian interiors with their plasterwork and mouldings sparked both my romantic and nostalgic cravings! Before I knew it I was off to discover how I would incorporate these architectural features, approach into a new art form.
The 'Taxonomy – Stag Beetle' series and 'My Heart's Content' are the result - a nod to the uncompromisable beauty of 19th century plasterwork mouldings and an ode to a bygone area of extreme opulence.
This is my way of introducing style and grace into my home and those of my audience, but you know, it always has a twist, look closely, what do you see?
