Tesson and A Field Guide to Getting

50/50. Ha ha, that’s a very
scientific answer isn’t it?

Camera. I used to have a collection of film
cameras I loved, but they sank when my boat
did. I should get around to replacing them.
DINNER PARTY GUESTS?
Heavy drinkers with no reason to go home.
YOUR APPROACH
TO DESIGN?
Authenticity and a life lived beautifully.
TOP FILM?
Café de Flore.
KITCHEN
Even the design of the cook
space captures the raw beauty of
the cottage’s surroundings and
also Sarah’s desire to celebrate a
slower way of life. ‘The renovation
gave me permission to live the
way that suits me,’ she says.
