Love for restoration
Art Director by day (and sometimes night) the love for the island of Malta, lures me back several times a year to its shores.
When my partner and I travel, I'm the one that usually does the accommodation research. I look for properties that are a living part of the history and culture of a city. For that week or two I fancy ourselves being in someone else's shoes, to really delve into that culture's real life. A bit of luxury does not go amiss either. When it came to doing up places, I kept all this firmly in mind. All the marketing research in the world could never compare with personal experience.
Valletta G-House was bought on a whim, and the fun I got from transforming it into a house that was featured on various publications instilled in me a love for restoration. With Indulgence Divine I fell in love with the dimensions and character of the place as well as the location. I let my (short) hair down and introduced brighter colours into its design. The house also gave me the opportunity to design bespoke pieces for it, born out of the experience of Valletta G-House.
