Hi, I'm Maia.

(Pronounced Maya)

I'm a visually obsessed, native New Yorker, who's always searching for the coolest in design, food & travel. 

Over the last 5 years, I left a well established career in healthcare to pursue my passion for design and writing.  This website is my little piece of inspiration, thoughts & adventures as I seek out the most creative spaces  & experiences around the world.

I hope you find this inspiring & share with me what inspires you as well! I'd love to hear from you. Thank you for visiting!

xx,

Maia

The Chelsea Home of Interior Stylist Carlos Mota

Ever since I saw images of Carlos Mota's home in the Dominican Republic, I have been a huge fan of this amazing interior stylist. He has a wonderful flair for entertaining and takes great detail in choosing the most luxurious materials and furnishings for his home. I love how he mixes both traditional and modern aesthetics, geometric shapes, rich colors, and expressive art and sculptures into the space. He even has a framed break-up letter in his home! Overall, I would say his style, which he named "globally chic", is totally awesome meets uptown glamour meets downtown cool. Exactly how I like it.
