My Favorites
Movie Interior: I Know Where I’m Going!. In the movie there’s a house in Scotland that’s very lived in with chintz, some maps, lots of animals, and everyone’s in cozy wool sweaters.
Album: I listen to the ’80s French film Diva soundtrack in my studio over, and over, and over.
Museum: I love the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston. It’s really more a pretty house surrounding a garden with some nice art.

Hotel: The Beldi Country Club, Morocco
Hostess Gift: Linen napkins by Libeco-Lagae
