bathrooms



These Photographs are from a shoot I did for House and Leisure, a feature on Bathrooms. They show the individuality of different spaces. For me a Bathroom needs to be both clinical, and individual. This can be done through modern accents such Hansgrohe sanitaryware. Or splashproof Oluce lighting from Eldc. Incorporating modern clear polycarbonate furniture like the Kartell Charles Ghost, from Twiice International. These items can be paired with colourful Mosaics, or with coloured panels- like the example of the red persex window insert. This is available in other colours from Maizey plastics.

Lorenzo Nassimbeni



My dealings with Lorenzo have been nothing but delightful. I have always been able to rely on him. He has always provided me with amazing product for my shoots. His work is enticing, on many levels. I have always loved maps, and doodles of buildings-his inspiration. He makes me feel like traveling, and a tourist in my own country. Everybody should have some of his fabric, or his original artworks. His fabric designs are available countrywide at Mavromac . His original artworks are available from Monique at Salon91.

natural palette



Thanks to Dave at Peerutin Architects, I found this amazing Kitchen in Llundudno to photograph. It was brand new, so they asked me to style it up for them. One look at the Sea, and the glass splashbacks, and I decided on the colour turquoise. Le Creuset had the perfect pots to match. The Stool_one is by Magis, designed by Konstantin Grcic. The Tomato Soup was prepared and styled by my friend Abigail Donnelly for Woolworths Taste Magazine.

Gister



Going to Nelia's shop, Gister, in Somerset West, is always exciting. She is the Queen of Vintage. She knows just the right way to mix things together. To my great excitement, I have styled and photographed her house for the next issue of House and Leisure. Hope you all like it. It is a special one for me , as it is my first 8 page house feature, for H&L.

la Masseria


I have known Miki, and Lorenzo for about 10yrs now. They have always treated me like family. I feel like their official photographer, having documented Nona making her families regional pasta. If you want to feel like part of an Italian family for a day, go and have lunch with them at La Masseria
