*Our best design ideas start when the plan ends*
This September, we took a few days off and let the south of France and the south of Spain lead the way. No fixed agenda, no checklist. Just walking, wandering, and letting each city show us its own rhythm.
What we found: centuries-old facades weathered to perfection, courtyards that make you slow down, tile work worth a second look, and interiors where every material feels considered. Beyond the buildings, it was the energy of the people that stayed with us: how they gather, linger over a table, and live inside their spaces.
Add great food, long conversations about design and life, and the company of my good friend and fellow designer Otrada Design LLC; it was exactly the reset we needed.
It’s a reminder we carry into every project at Couture Haus: the best spaces are shaped by how people live in them. Travel sharpens the eye, and it fills the well.
