Making The Ordinary, Extraordinary





The way in which ordinary people build, adapt and craft intimate and highly personalised spaces fascinates me. I have forever been intrigued by domestic interiors and the contents with which we fill them. Therefore, taking a look around textile designer Karen Nicol's Surrey home was my absolute dream!

The summer before last I spent some time working with Karen in her studio and these are a small selection of the many photographs I took in preparation for my Dissertation study, Pieces of Me: Aspiration and Identity Behind Closed Doors. I especially love how Karen takes simple, everyday objects and totally transforms them into visually exciting scenes. More pictures to follow!
