Peeping In - Nina & Helmut

I love Nina's home because she exemplifies my design philosophy of surrounding yourself in the things you love.  She even has a wonderful portrait (in the mirror) that I am coveting to match mine.

Nina - ‘Our home is full of stuff: new stuff, collected stuff, stuff with surprising uses. My partner Helmut agrees it’s a different kind of recycling! My sister worries I’ll end up trapped by my belongings The past inspires me. I love vintage crockery, decorations, wallpaper and textiles. I like to enjoy what I collect. I don’t like to live in a museum.'

Peeping In - Trullo

This wonderful home is a trullo – a conical stone house traditional to south-east Italy.  It belonged to the owner's grandparents and was their summer house.  The owner remembers visiting on holidays but now lives here full time with her family.
