MD: Will the collection represent your personal décor style, and if so, what is that?

VA: Mine is eclectic. I believe in two different objects being different, and the in-between expresses personality. In fashion, I do a high-low street-meets-refined thing, which to me feels modern. It feels as contradictory as people are. The freedom in the generation of now is that you don't have to be perfect. You don't have to fit in a box of liking modern or ornate. You can be in between.

Of course, as an architect, I'm trying to figure out how impossible it would be to pick a coffee table that [different people] like. The way to get both of your attention in the collection is to do two dissimilar things that don't have to relate to each other.

MD: You've been quoted saying that we're a "post-Tumblr generation" obsessed with replicating a perfect image. Does that influence how millennials decorate?

VA: Its not realistic unless you have [a limitless] budget. You don't remodel your whole environment—that's not how people consume. What I'm more interested in is that statement piece that revitalises a whole room.

That's what my cultural observation is. That's what the fashion, the music has taught me. Three new pieces and decluttering can give you an apartment that looks like your Tumblr page.
