My Sanctuary: Twig Hutchinson
While home has often been considered a feminine space, too few opportunities have been given to women to tell their stories about the places they inhabit and the objects they value. Our sanctuaries articulate our unique aesthetics, rituals and needs and so become a beautiful expression of selfhood.
In this series we discover the stories of home and life told by some of the wonderful women in our midst.
Twig Hutchinson is a multi-hyphenate who’s work includes visual brand consultancy, interior styling and art direction, curation and writing — she is also Design Editor of The Glass Magazine. Her subtle but stylish approach to interiors has garnered her a long list of respected clients. Twig shares some insights and features of her London home with us.
“I am a firm believer that every home should have a vintage mirrorball hiding somewhere around the house!”
“I love to style different objects in little companionable groups”
“Weekends are all about trying to find moments to relax and one of my favourite ways of doing this is by having a long bath whilst reading The Week Magazine”
“These branches came all the way back with me form Scotland at half term. Today i’m looking forward to decorating them with some brightly colored vintage baubles and then it’s off to buy the tree”
“Instead of a dressing table in our bedroom we have a sink. I’ve decided to hang my new decorations from the lights to ad some Christmas here in an unexpected place”
“My go-to weekend treat is to stay in bed for as long as possible. Preferably with a large cup of tea and a copy of The Financial Times”
“I love to collect art”
“The most important part of the weekend is spending time as a family and eating together around the kitchen table is a central part of that”
