I’ve discovered the term “Savoir-faire” at this year’s Maison et Objet and Paris Design week, and I like it. Savoir quite simply is ‘knowing’, and faire is ‘how to do’. Essentially, in the Design world context, it’s about the preserved generational craftsmanship and artisanal skills. It was so amazing to […]
I’ve been on a lookout for a luxury modular sofa for some time and the Edward sofa, one of Domkapa’s new season collection caught my attention. Domkapa, is a luxury furniture brand from Portugal, and you can read all about it in my blog post from Maison et Objet here. […]
I’ve just returned from Maison et Objet January 2023 and am excited to share with you my trends forecast, nicely illustrated by Domkapa, a luxury furniture brand from Portugal, that I had the pleasure of exploring. The theme of sustainable design is still very much on the agenda at the […]
Luxury candle holder, a collaboration between Casarialto and Diptyque. Scented candles are one of my favourite luxuries at home. I love how a scent permeating through a room can really uplift and enhance the feel of a space. That flickering candlelight is mesmerising, relaxing and hypnotic. I’ve been on a […]
Finally, the report from my recent press trip to Maison & Objet and Paris Design week September 2022 is here. I’ve decided to do a round up of my favourite finds that I would want in my own home too. Paris Design Week ran alongside Maison & Objet, so it […]

It’s September, so time for my annual Back to Uni student Room revamp feature. I think my daughter drew the short straw in university accommodation this year, as she was not present to go accommodation hunting since she was abroad at University in California. So, this year, this is what […]
Photographic art prints was never something I had previously considered until I discovered LUMAS. As you can see above my desk in my workspace, I usually went for illustrated art prints. I guess I used to naively view photography as something everyone could go out and snap for themselves. However, […]
Sass and Belle colourful decor for a joyful outdoor garden space . I recently revamped a small patio space in my garden with some garden furniture. Today, I thought I’d show you how I add bright pops of colours using a few of Sass and Belle’s new Summer Homewares collection. […]
Luxaflex® Duette® range of window blinds have exceeded my expectations. They are a great alternative to explore if you are not a fan of curtains. They can add to your home’s overall aesthetic whilst maintaining light control and insulation. Nowadays, there are so many varieties of blind fabrics, styles and functions […]
I’ve heard about how comfortable Hybrid mattresses are, so I was super excited to try Hypnia’s Supreme Hybrid mattress. It’s a mattress with a combination of memory foam and springs. I’ve always had either memory foam only or spring mattresses, and they have their pro and cons. So, this was […]
