The hospitality edition

Hospitality interiors with natural materials, healthy finishes and a strong sense of place

The cover story

Healthy Materials and Thoughtful Interiors for Beautiful Places to Live and Stay.

Hospitality consulting is my primary focus: interior design and healthy materials guidance for farm stays, retreats, boutique hotels and nature-based accommodations—spaces that are beautiful, healthier to sleep in, and rooted in their place.

II What I do

I work with owners and developers of farm stays, wellness retreats, boutique hotels, guest houses, regenerative properties, vacation rentals and nature-based stays. I specialize in where interior design meets healthy building materials, natural finishes and a strong sense of place—with clear recommendations you can build from. I also continue to design interiors for a select number of residential clients.

I

Natural materials

Lime and clay, wood, wool, linen and stone—low-toxicity finishes that guests feel before they can name them, and that age gracefully with heavy use.

II

Hospitality interiors

Guest rooms, common spaces and details with a point of view—antique, vintage and handmade pieces that tell the story of your place.

III

Art & color

Palettes built from your landscape and light, with art and objects chosen so a stay feels unmistakably of its place.
