DESIGNED TO WANDER
Explore the world with an Interior Designer.
Travel books and photographs for the places that make you look twice. Architecture, art, interiors, food, and the everyday details I bring home from a trip.
Read the story. Find a photograph for your walls. Then follow a free itinerary—or work with me one-on-one to shape a trip around what you love.
Explore the BooksShop Tokyo After DarkA place is more than its landmarks.
A doorway changes how we arrive. A food counter makes ordinary things feel special. A street after dark reveals another side of a city.
Designed to Wander brings these moments together through my photographs, personal observations, and cultural context. I look at each destination as an interior designer: what did I notice, why does it matter, and how does it change the experience of being there?
