So happy to have been part of the International Week at Hochschule Bielefeld (HSBI), Germany 🙌
I was invited by Professor Robert Paulmann to give a lecture alongside incredible fellow experts — including , Britton, Daniel Miller, Diego Agulló, Elisa Foster and Rosa Merkman, among many others, some of whom became new friends ✨
The lecture and workshop were part of my Branding with Purpose programme — two intensive days working with Brand Identity students on repositioning three real cultural institutions: the Bielefelder Philharmoniker, Kunstverein Bielefeld and Kunsthalle Bielefeld for a younger and more diverse audience.
The students completely exceeded my expectations. They worked at speed, the results were fantastic, and above all it was a tremendous experience. Students left with a clearer sense of what a brand truly stands for and why that matters before anything visual begins.

The next generation of designers is redefining cultural relevance. I learnt so much from their perspectives on bringing art and culture closer to young people’s hearts 🎨

Wonderful to be back in Bielefeld after having been part of and thank you to the whole HSBI team for such a memorable week 🙏

Let me take you inside 66 Camden Square, a house I’ve admired for years from my kitchen window, so stepping inside felt a little gift.

Home of Francesca Francossi — artist, educator, and co-founder/art director of Rochester Square, the visit was part of an Foundation tour linked to the publication At Home in London, The Mews Houses.

Designed around a rigorous 3×3 metre grid by Peter Bell (and later realised by Rodger Davis), the house balances precision and lightness: reclaimed brick at street level, then timber, glass, colour and planting unfolding above and within. A subtle play of privacy, views and levels that feels both considered and quietly generous.

Thank you to my friend for letting me know about the visit, and to Francesca for her warm hospitality. I feel lucky for the visit!

Let me take you inside the London home of Sigmund Freud. Witness firsthand the study of the father of psychoanalysis and the birthplace of modern talking therapy. It was an exact replica of his Vienna study, which he had to leave because of the N**i invasion. In this spacious house he spent his last days and held his final therapy sessions. Thanks to his daughter Anna, it was transformed into a museum in 1986.

It felt intimate and human, a great glimpse into his family life. There’s a beautiful connection to the Surrealist movement with a portrait that Dalí made of him.

My takeaways: his love for ancient art, he placed the pieces facing him on his desk, for him a metaphor of how our past defines our present. And the “transformational couch,” as he called it, with a Persian rug draped over it and his seat positioned behind so patients couldn’t stare at his face while exploring their unconscious minds.

Thank you, Freud, for leaving us this legacy that changed the way we understand our minds. It took a huge amount of courage to challenge conventional thinking. His ideas about sexuality and the unconscious were considered morally offensive at the time. “Resistance was strong and unrelenting. But the struggle is not over.

The work of understanding ourselves continues...
