The brief wasn’t a full refit. New dining furniture, yes — but the sofa was already there. The work was in making everything belong together.

A new fabric scheme across the soft furnishings. The dining chairs pulled into the same palette. Surfaces cleared of everything that didn’t earn its place.

The result is something that feels less like a yacht interior and more like a mood. Warm tones against open water. A land palette meeting a sea one. The kind of space that makes you slow down without quite knowing why.

A permanent emotion of what sunset looks and feels like.

Not every project begins with a blank deck. Sometimes the brief is simpler — and the result just as considered.

This Wally Tender 43 came to me whilst under taking a light refit: teak decking restored, gelcoat buffed back to showroom condition, and all upholstery replaced throughout — from the forward sunpad to the cockpit seating and helm chairs, back through to the aft sunpads.

The hull was always going to be grey. That’s the boat. So rather than fight it, I let it lead — settling on a dusty blue-grey fabric palette that lifts the whole vessel without competing with its lines. It reads cooler on the water.

Quieter. Like a new day entirely.

And that’s exactly what this is now — a day charter tender that feels fresh without pretending to be something it wasn’t.

No project is too small to do well. Whether I’m working across 72 metres or 43 feet, the thinking is the same. Every surface, every moment someone steps aboard matters. On land and at sea.

Cannes Film Festival has just finished. Monaco Grand Prix is a few short weeks away.

The western Mediterranean doesn’t ease into the season — it arrives all at once. The yachts were already on the Croisette. The crews have been working since the clocks changed.

This is what the season looks like from the inside. Not the arrival — the long run-up that made the arrival possible. The decisions made in quiet ports before anyone was watching. The cushions dressed. The towels rolled. The deck exactly as it should be before the owner steps aboard.

By the time the champagne is open, that work is invisible. Which is exactly how it should be.

Genoa to Marseille. This is the corridor. This is the season.

The longer you do this work, the quieter the decisions become.

Not easier — quieter. You stop explaining your choices to yourself mid-process and start trusting the instinct that’s been built over years of getting it right and occasionally getting it wrong.

I work with suppliers I’ve known for a long time. Craftspeople who understand what I’m asking for before I’ve finished asking. Clients who come back not because the first project was beautiful — though it was — but because the experience of working together felt like something.

That kind of practice takes time to build.

I’ve been building it for a while now. And this season, it arrives somewhere new.

The terrace was already beautiful.
That was almost the problem.

When the view does this much work — the sea, the haze, the garden leaning in from every side — the furniture has to earn its place without competing.

This terrace isn’t for looking at. It’s for looking from.

Summer is nearly here. This terrace is ready.

Home base... Monaco is quiet today and I’m moving slowly - filling the cup back up after weeks of giving everything to projects, clients, family and friends.

There’s something about a still morning at the desk that brings things back into focus. The inspiration board (which when I look at it in this photo - looks very well behaved today compared to others 😊) The open screen. The next brief taking shape.

Days like this land with intention. And intention is where everything begins.

Every project starts the same way.

I come on board. I listen. I watch. I ask questions that might seem obvious but rarely are. That process — before a single decision is made — is the foundation of everything that follows.

No two spaces are approached the same way. The lens changes every time. The process doesn’t.

Seek. Understand. Inspire. Create.

This was a refresh of the master cabin — lighting, soft furnishings, window treatments, bedding, furniture. Not a reinvention. A recalibration. The yacht had its own DNA and the client had a clear sense of what they wanted. My job was to hold both of those things at once and find where they met.

The result is a cabin that hugs the space. That makes you want to sink in, slow down, and stay a little longer than you planned.

That’s what I’m always working toward — rooms that earn the pause.

The starting point was the architecture.

Classic boiserie — but placed in a completely contemporary setting. The brief was to create an interior that honoured that framework without being defined by it. Something that sat alongside the walls rather than inside them.

From there, every decision was about building a quiet independence. Fabrics layered for depth but tailored in feeling — chosen for how they’d live day to day, not just how they’d photograph. The cushion print is indigenous — a pattern I’d been holding onto, waiting for the right project. This was it. Paired against the teal boucle, it brought exactly the narrative tension the room needed.

The walnut was chosen for its tone as much as its material. That matured, amber warmth — the kind that belongs to a room with a certain kind of occupant. An elegant couple who’ve lived well and know what they like.

The coffee table tells you who lives here without saying a word.
