Photographer Bonnie Stewart-Macdonald popped by a few months ago and caught some shots of me and my compact, modern 2 bedroom apartment in central Auckland, New Zealand.

I’ve been based (living AND working) from the great sunny space for the last three years – and despite its small size I LOVE IT!

As you will see from the imagery, it is very much a simple white, blank canvas which makes for a fresh background for all my “stuff” which tends to be quite tactile, natural and quite often secondhand! I’m a bit of a collector and definitely have a weakness for art – my collection is constantly growing and mostly made up of the work of the down under artists that I feature on my site.

Thanks, Julia!
