Alfredo Paredes NYC, Miami Must-tour gardens or historic home. Old Westbury Gardens on Long Island is a place I've always appreciated. The estate was built in the early 1900s, and when I was restoring my own home nearby, a 1929 Harrie T. Lindeberg property, I found myself thinking a lot about that era. There is something about the scale, the symmetry, and the way the house relates to the landscape that still feels relevant. Touring Old Westbury gives you a full view of the architecture and the lifestyle, which is something I try to bring into my own work. Favorite design or antiques shops. König Gustav Antiques & Interiors near Hamburg is a favorite. I also like Tat London for its character and unexpected finds, and Beall & Bell on the North Fork has been a longtime go-to. My Shelter Island home was full of pieces from there. What you collect. I've always been drawn to vintage photography. I enjoy finding images of different destinations and arranging them in a way that tells a narrative of something personal but also universal. Home scent. Perfumer H.
