home truths

BEST THING ABOUT THE

SPANISH SUMMER?

I prefer the Spanish spring or autumn.

Fewer tourists, good weather and you can live

in the city with greater intimacy.

Y O U R F A V O U R I T E

ICONIC DESIGN?

The Dormitio armchair by Gio Ponti.

HOW DO YOU CHILL?

I love being in the open air, lying in the sun

and listening to music or reading.

DREAM DESTINATION?

Africa. I’d love to go back to Mozambique.

As soon as I step on the soil I feel at home.

LAST DARING THING

YOU DID?

I just returned from a rafting weekend. Wild.

DID YOU DREAM

LAST NIGHT?

I don’t remember! But I do have surreal

dreams – I am in an apocalypse with giant stuffed

animals, that kind of thing.

BEDROOM

Traditional floor tiles in a subtle

palette bring a decorative touch

to this contemporary space.

BATHROOM

At the heart of the apartment

is this innovative and sensory

space. ‘When it’s illuminated

through the circular window it

feels like a Turkish hammam,’

says Andrea.
