Rua da Boavista 152

I believe there is no ideal living space. Each place is different, in terms of its location, environment, materials, and history... It's about adapting and shaping it, as much as possible, to your tastes, your current lifestyle, to find the comfort you expect... Feeling good at home means finding a place for each of the things that accompany us throughout our lives... Those things that surround you because they reflect who you are and make you feel good... My large paintings, sculptures, and my taste for minimalism naturally guided the design of the living spaces in the apartment.

How to design a small space?

We don't always think about it when it's not our job, but the choice of colours and materials can have a major impact on the overall look of a space. And when it comes to designing a small space, there are a few things you need to know to avoid making any mistakes.

"Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away". Antoine de Saint-Exupéry. This minimalist consciousness has been around for some time. But to date it has never had so much impact or strength. We see this trend on a daily basis, often exercised by major brands such as Apple and their simplistic designs, Ikea and their Scandinavian furniture where use is the primary reason for the furniture's existence, and Monoprix, which presents its products in packaging stripped of useless but powerful information.

Portrait of Clara Clamens - the talented Marseille-based artisan crafting beauty in Wood

Most of my inspiration comes from the curves you can see in nature around: a leaf, a cloud, a seaweed, waves etc. I can also be inspired by the body movements, dances, and facial curves. And of course wood: its veins, its color and natural shape. I sometimes try to understand what happened in the tree’s life: a storm, a heatwave. It is a great source of inspiration. Some wood varieties are amazing with very graphic veins like the plane tree.
