The Eye Behind the Collection

A woman with long brown hair and a black turtleneck sweater smiling.

For over three decades, I've traveled the world creating products, building brands, and discovering exceptional design for some of the most recognized names in fashion and lifestyle. Along the way, I've collaborated with renowned designers, creative visionaries, retailers, and artisans – honing an eye for the quiet qualities that make a piece truly remarkable.

"The most memorable pieces aren't the ones that demand attention — they're the ones that quietly stay with us."

A Career Shaped By Design


My journey has taken me from studios and artisan workshops to global manufacturing partners and international trade fairs, where I gained firsthand insight into the artistry, materials, and processes behind some of the industry’s most enduring collections.

Those experiences shaped a belief that has never left me: the most memorable objects are the ones that make you stop

… a line, a texture, a trace of history, something imperfect yet unmistakable.

Not because they’re expensive or flawless, but because they have lasting presence.

Our collection is not defined by a single aesthetic

It’s a way of seeing.

The Art of Curation


Today, 11 Hamilton Home is an extension of that philosophy. Guided by the lens I’ve developed over a career in design, I personally curate pieces that embody the unexpected, the intentional, and the timeless.

Here you’ll find carefully sourced antiques alongside contemporary design, handcrafted works beside modern forms – pieces discovered through distant travels and hidden local sources, each selected not because they follow a formula, but because they have a story worth bringing home.

May this collection inspire you to look closer and discover the pieces that feel uniquely yours.

A Life Well Collected

The most remarkable pieces aren’t simply beautiful; they stay with us. They carry a story through their craftsmanship, materials, history, and enduring character.

A truly beautiful home is built over time. Each piece becomes part of our story and the spaces we call home, shaping a life well collected – one extraordinary discovery at a time.
