What’s more beautiful

than a handcrafted one-of-a-kind piece made of solid, responsibly harvested wood?

Can’t think of anything right now.

This little number? It’s the workmanship of Jeff Martin Joinery which I first discovered on Room 907. And one day my kitchen island will look just like it. Mark. My. Words.

When I was in Paris

I stayed in a converted artist’s studio on Rue d’Amsterdam near the Place de Clichy (can I say I “lived” there? I was there for a month).

And a happy new year

Warmth! Colour! Summer!

Not here, mind you. But in Australia. Where one of my favourite magazines (Vogue Living Australia) features Kelly Wearstler’s gorgeous L.A. home.
