Colour serves as a profound inspiration for me, evoking strong emotions and invigorating the soul. I'm equally drawn to craft, particularly in ceramics with beautiful glazes and the meticulous attention to detail found in crafts like couture fashion. Interiors and spaces also captivate me, as they can convey narratives, emotions and strong personality. I enjoy the vibrant and eclectic chaos of markets and collections, where diverse decorative elements come together, offering endless creative potential.

I love living with colour, it is something vital to me. It’s very personal, to me colour is joy.Colour resonates with human emotions and conveys happiness through its various combinations, from soft tints and pastels to bold hues and rich tones. Returning to a welcoming, colour-infused environment that reflects personal tastes is both uplifting and comforting. Colour has the power to ground us and express our unique identities, and its character is transformed by different textures and surfaces, whether it's the glossy sheen of ceramics, the matte finish of paint, or the softness of materials like mohair or linen, adding another layer of delight.

A diverse, curated crockery selection with a mix-and-match style is excellent, especially when collected over time. Tablecloths add a nice tactile element, enhancing the dining experience. Creating captivating tablescapes can involve incorporating varying heights, which adds visual interest and movement. Elevate the table with elements like flower posies or candlesticks to draw the eye above plate level and consider using footed serving dishes at different heights for a centrepiece, especially on a large table. To enhance colour appeal in your tablescape, opt for a range of broad tints and tones within the same colour family to create a harmonious atmosphere, allowing for extra texture and style mixing. Drawing inspiration from your food choices can also enhance the experience; for example, serving rustic Mediterranean dishes pairsbeautifully with terracotta and glazed stoneware, creating a tangible connection between the table setting and the cuisine.
