What do you love most about what you do?

 

I split my time between collection consulting, art direction, and styling — a mix I truly enjoy. I’m incredibly passionate about my work and often find myself emotionally invested in the brands I collaborate with. My attention to detail, especially when it comes to perfecting the look and feel of a product, makes the collection consulting aspect particularly fulfilling for me.

 


Your dream art and design collection?

 

A curated mix of meaningful, long-loved pieces with character. I’d include 1940s dining chairs by Jean Royère, a Jean Royère ‘Persane’ light fixture, and works by Leonardo Devito — a recent discovery thanks to a friend who works in art advisory. I’ve developed a deeper appreciation for Svenskt Tenn and the Swedish Grace era, especially since moving abroad. One of my favourite additions lately is a 1930s Nils Fougstedt vase — it’s a piece I truly treasure.

 

 

Define your style in three words.

 

Understated, comfortable, timeless.

 


Signature Scent

 

Régime des Fleurs ‘Jade Vines’.

 


Signature Look

 

My most-worn piece is the Toteme leather coat from the Garderob collection. I style it with vintage Levi’s or tailored trousers, a lightweight cashmere crewneck or classic cotton tee, and finish the look with ballet flats from The Row or Chanel. For evenings, I often go for tailored trousers or a column skirt paired with pointy flats or kitten-heel slingbacks.

 


What destinations inspire you creatively?

 

Creatively, I’m endlessly inspired by New York and Paris — the energy, architecture, food, and fashion. I also have a deep love for Marrakech and often dream about having a home there one day.

 


Hometown Hangouts

 

We live near The River Café, and I love their café area — perfect for a casual aperitivo with friends. Riva is another neighborhood favourite — a true institution with fantastic food and genuinely lovely staff. On Saturdays, you’ll likely find me at The Cow, ideally in the company of our Irish friends.

 

I also spend time at the gym and in the infrared sauna at White City House, and I try to do Pilates a few times a week. If I have a lighter workday, I enjoy long walks along the river after school drop-off.

 


Favourite piece from R&D’s current collection

 

That’s a tough one! I adore the Sparta chair — so chic and incredibly comfortable. But the new sofa… it’s truly something special.
