Nina Maya Interiors - Residence of Australian Prime Minister Bob Hawke


The interior design of former Australian prime minister Bob Hawke’s home is nothing short of spectacular. The five-storey glass-and-steel complex towers over the sparkling water of Sydney’s Sugarloaf Bay, with each room expertly crafted to reflect the personalities of its inhabitants. From the grand entrance hall to the cosy reading nook, every corner of the house exudes elegance, sophistication, and style. I am grateful for the opportunity Nina Maya Interiors give my work featured in the home of a former prime minister known for his unifying bravura.

Studio Ashby – Home of Sophie Ashby and Charlie Casely-Hayford, London

 

Featured in both Vogue Living and Architectural Digest, I am delighted to have my sculptures permanently reside in the home of Sophie Ashby and Charlie Casely-Hayford, one of London's most talented and creative power-couples. Their stunning residence is a breathtaking testament to their unique sense of style and history.

Sophie's background in art history and interior design shines through in every corner of their home, from the bold and vivid colours she injects into the space to the sophisticated shades that balance them out. Charlie’s family history is just as impressive, with his great-grandfather J.E. Casely Hayford having been a pioneer of Pan-African politics and civil rights activism. Charlie joined his late father, the esteemed British fashion designer Joe Casely Haford, in launching the luxury menswear label Casely Hayford London, a brand based on English sartorialism and British anarchy. I am struck by the sense of harmony and contrast that Sophie's design evokes, a feeling that Charlie’s late father would have called ‘harmonious discord’. But to me it’s simply an incredible expression of creativity and style that invites conversation and engagement. It’s clear that creativity and innovation run deep in this family, and I feel privileged to have a small part in their incredible story.

Dulux Colour Trend Forecast, International



The Dulux Colour Forecast is one of the most highly anticipated events in the world of colour and interior design. The annual trend report predicts the colours set to influence interiors globally for the year ahead. The 2022 forecast featured three palettes inspired by the natural world to evoke a sense of joy and connection.

My vessels were chosen to be part of the Restore palette, which comprises gentle, earthy neutrals and more rugged, natural hues such as buttercream, pumice, and moss. These colours reflect a sense of minimalism and tranquillity, providing a soothing backdrop for our constantly changing lives. The palette is designed to awaken our innate need for authentic connection and experience, and I am honoured to have contributed to this vision.

The Dulux Colour Forecast 2022 was developed by a team of experts, including Dulux colour specialist Davina Harper and Bree Leech. The team drew on insights from seminars such as The Future Lab and Colour Hive, forecast reports, and engagements with international brands to create a forward-thinking and exciting vision for the future of colour.

Migdale Castle - Upstate New York






Migdale Castle is one of America’s few remaining castles and was built in 1927 to evoke the grandeur of the famous Skibo Castle in Scotland. The property was recently purchased by one of my clients for personal use. Two of my ceramic sculptures now reside within this incredible home. 

Migdale Castle sits on 200 acres of land overlooking sweeping vistas of the Catskill Mountain and is entered through a winding private driveway that leads to a giant gatehouse that opens up to the vast estate beyond. The house is divided into four wings–each for a different member of the family and each has its own personality. The expansive four-story residence has 29 rooms in total that each have a distinctive name and theme. Some of the luxurious amenities include an indoor edgeless pool with a glass wall overlooking the great lawn (the largest single-pane ever built), a 5000-bottle wine cellar, a 13-seat theatre, a fully equipped spa featuring a treatment room, steam rooms with saunas and a hot tub. The grounds of the estate include a tennis court with a cabana, a playground, numerous ponds, an organic garden with a greenhouse, and orchard fields.
