Describe your design aesthetic in a few words?
Colorful, eclectic, cozy, and full of personality.
What do you love about using antiques in your designs?
All antiques tell a story: that of my client´s, or about a specific era, place, or style. I like my spaces to tell stories; about my clients’ preferences, trips, collections, passions, heritage, and antiques are a perfect way of achieving just that.
What inspires you?
So many things, people, and places inspire me! But I get the most inspiration from traveling. Churches, museums, art exhibits, even from parks, and nature… If one keep eyes wide open you can find inspiration pretty much everywhere.
What can you never have too much of?
I can never have too many books. They not only give knowledge and happiness, but they give spaces warmth and personality.
If you could design for a fictional character who would it be and why?
One would be Captain von Trapp; he was classy, cultivated and generous, or a super sexy, sumptuous, luxurious project for Jessica Rabbit.
