Doors of Matera

I went back to Matera in Puglia today, to scout some more locations for the photo shoot of my new upcoming Lounge collection. Along the walk I just had to stop and gawk at the amazing doors!

Each one tells a mystical story. My imagination takes me on journey back through the ages. Take a look at some of the beautiful pieces of art I found...

Can't you just feel it?

Magical Matera

During a recent business trip to Italy, I was very fortunate to be able to spend a day in one of my favorite places on the planet...The Sassi in Matera! 

It's an amazing place where after the ancient inhabitants left the caves, they carved the beautiful town you see in the photo above from the rock. The beauty humbles the soul, and the history radiates through every fiber of your being. It's simply magical!!

My advice...don't leave the planet without seeing this place ;-)
