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

Effortlessly Chic: The Home of Vogue Italia's Franca Sozzani

Effortlessly Chic: The Home of Vogue Italia's Franca Sozzani

Vogue Italia's Editor in Chief, Franca Sozzani, had many talents, including an affinity with architecture. A minimalist by nature, Sozzani designed the layout of her Parisian home thoughtfully and with purpose. This 4 story home was originally divided into three apartments, which Sozzani then renovated to increase direct sunlight and produce a seamless transition between rooms. 

These images portray a lived-in home, a true expression of her personal style. The black and white photography, clean lines and subtle textures throughout this space make Sozzani's home feel close to home. 

Here's an inside look at the late Sozzani's home in Paris, a true celebration of the fashion icon's effortlessly cool style.
