New York State of Mind

Senior Interior Designer Narelle Cuthbert recently travelled to New York City, here are a few of her favourite things...

AESOP
Attending the launch of New Yorks first standalone Aesop store in Nolita. This cleverly designed store pushes the boundaries in both scale and choice of building materials with walls constructed from recycled New York Times newspapers.
