Chloe Frost-Smith is a freelance travel and interiors writer, with a home that reads like a passport of the places she loves most. She’s forever meeting artisans, scouring flea markets, and collecting one-of-a-kind objects on her travels – Romanian ceramics for her kitchen plate wall, Swedish textiles to layer with French linens, basketry from Botswana – resulting in a style as eclectic as her itineraries. A maximalist at heart, she’s constantly finding ways to make her space cosier for her hound, Humphrey (who is largely responsible for her expanding sheepskin-throw collection).
