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

Lulu Frost's New Studio Loft in the Flatiron District

Lulu Frost's New Studio Loft in the Flatiron District

Yesterday, I came across this amazing showroom studio while searching for chic DIY inspiration. Lisa Salzer, jewelry designer and founder of Lulu Frost, collaborated with a longtime friend to turn a Flatiron loft space into the ultimate showroom & workspace for her jewelry collection. The two accomplished this goal by blending vintage pieces with modern accents and adding a personalized DIY twist. 

estilo TIP: Incorporating patterns and textures with tape and paint is a great low cost way to add personal flair to a space. This studio loft is proof you can have big impact on a budget!
