The arts, in all their guises, have been a lifelong interest and passion of mine and inform my interior design projects. I carefully layer pieces from various time periods – often with classic furniture forms — to create spaces that are warm, supremely comfortable, with the aspiration they will transcend time.
InCollect, a new and very handsome on-line destination for enthusiasts of art, antiques and design, asked me to browse their collections and select items that appealed to my aesthetic. Here are some of my selections….
My criteria for inclusion was to look for objects that have distinctive silhouettes and are ‘bi-lingual’ – that is to say the objects that speak to the time they were made, while speaking to today – a sign for me that the object or work of art has, and will endure over time. For me fine Art (with a capital ‘A’) is one of the greatest luxuries one can give themselves – offering another view on life.
