Style Matters
Fashion has always inspired me. As a teenager, I could hardly wait for the monthly release of the hottest fashion magazines to see the latest trends. Flash forward: I’m still eager for fashion magazines to hit the stands. These days, however, fashion drives my Interior Design projects – patterns, fabrics, and colors all contribute to the freshness of my designs. Here are a few such works. Diverti!
The Kou Chandelier is made from a collection of unglazed bone china spokes that give the impression of light exploding on the scene.

Crystal drops dangling from this drum shaped Chandelier gives the studio a sophisticated sparkle.
