From New York to Crafers, via a series of diplomatic postings is always going to expose you to a wide variety of influences.

Making the most of the outlook, the garden is sucked into the house via huge double glazed windows, whilst the interior provides a striking palette of black and white, copper and stone, and bright flashes of colour and fun.
