Travel wish
Timbuktu on a camel

Dream project

The Huntington Hotel, San Francisco

Can’t live without
Flowers. My chalkboard at home reads, ‘I’d rather have flowers on my table than pearls around my neck.’

Hotels I love for their design

La Colombe d’Or, Saint-Paul de Vence, France; Hotel Costes, Paris; and La Mirande, Avignon, France


Greatest lesson learned

Never to guess yourself. The first idea is usually the best.
