At this point I think I’m solar powered ✨ capt At this point I think I’m solar powered ✨ captured this just before I headed to the airport yesterday for Copenhagen. I’m very excited to be here for @3daysofdesign - it’s a design festival open to designers and the public, where brands open their doors to their showrooms for exhibitions and events - follow along on stories to see some interior inspiration 🤩 is anyone else here?!
There’s no place I’d rather be - home 🤍 lit There’s no place I’d rather be - home 🤍 little everyday moments that fill my cup - slow days, small wet handprints, lunch outside, pottering in the garden, home when it’s feels a little messy and undone but full of heart. I feel incredibly lucky that this is our everyday when it’s not the case for so many; we’re safe, we have food on the table, we have a beautiful home, I never take these moments for granted 💚
It amazes me that it can be 7.30pm and I can still It amazes me that it can be 7.30pm and I can still get a decent shot inside! 💫 these longer days are so good for the soul, and flooding everything with a golden glow! ☀️
That time of year where the garden becomes an exte That time of year where the garden becomes an extension of the house, just waiting for the sun to come out again… 🌿 trying to make the most of the four months a year when the garden comes to life and I spend every spare moment outside 💚
[Ad] Have you ever wondered how your toilet is mad [Ad] Have you ever wondered how your toilet is made? A toilet is pretty essential right, something we use everyday and probably take for granted, but who knew there was so much precision, craft and technology that goes into their making. Here at bathroom company @ceramicacatalano, where everything is 100% made in Italy, quality is everything - from the clean, minimal designs, to the highest quality materials, to  the high tech robots that polish, smooth, glaze and perfect the ceramic sanitaryware to the best it can be. I had no idea that something so mundane had so much craft behind it - gives me a newfound appreciation for the most everyday ubiquitous design! 🚽
[Ad - press trip] Interior inspiration is everywhe [Ad - press trip] Interior inspiration is everywhere - from the colour of a door, to the shape of a handle, or the colour of a tile. I get so much inspiration from escaping out of the ordinary and seeing little corners of the world! It was such a joy to travel to Italy this week with Italian bathroom company @ceramicacatalano 🛁🚽 who are based just outside Rome near Viterbo, in an area with a rich, strong ceramic heritage. There’s seriously so much history in Italy! And this was just one town. We wandered the old streets of the old town of Civita Castellana, took in all the historic details and enjoyed spritz and sparkling wine as the sun was setting - I just wish I’d been there longer!! Next I’ll share inside Catalano’s factory, where tradition and precision collide. Who knew the making of a bog could be so interesting! 🇮🇹
