Art is highly personal
We believe that art is the soul of a place. Over the years we’ve noticed that many people desire art that fits their beautiful homes and lives, but don’t know where to start, while talented artists seek meaningful connections with buyers who truly appreciate their work. This is where we come in. Step into our homes, where art not only complements the interior but also expresses our individuality. Many of the works,paintings, drawings, photographs, videos, and sculptures are pieces we’ve created ourselves or sourced from artists we’ve had the pleasure of working with.

I am a creative in heart and soul. My house is a museum of me. I designed every part of it and the art in my house tells a story about me and my creative journey.
Over the years, I worked on many international creative projects, big and small. I’m grateful I’ve had the chance to work with exceptionally talented artists, visionairs, photographers, directors, DOP’s, designers, industrial designers, Illustrators, gifted geeks, craftspeople, etc all over the world. They helped bring my ideas to life. Art & craft has always been the centre of my work, this is my passion. I enjoy creating my own art as much as collaborating with others. This is what I love doing, what I am good at.
I’ve been playing with this idea for a while, combining Art Direction & Art Decoration. And now the time is right and I am excited to start this new creative studio with Carla.

We Can Art Decorate Your Home and Life
By thoughtfully creating and curating art, we add the perfect finishing touch to your home, garden, and special moments. We bring art that reflects your personality in a tasteful and artful way – tailored to your story, style, interior, and budget.
From a young age, I was fascinated by beauty in all its forms. It felt natural to seek out harmony and expression in everything I did. That fascination eventually led to a career in costume design and styling. I discovered how powerful it is to tell a story through shape, texture, and atmosphere. Helping others shape their own visual world.
Alongside my work in film and theatre, I also created my own art, curated group exhibitions, and collaborated with other artists. These collaborations taught me how to weave different perspectives together in a meaningful way, with care, trust, and a strong sense of the right tone.
Now it feels as though everything is coming together naturally in this new chapter of my career. With Living with Daydreams, that same sensitivity and vision take on a new form. Together with Jessica, I guide people in rediscovering their art collections, curate pieces that truly resonate, and create bespoke artworks, always driven by emotion, aesthetics, and a desire to let beauty tell a story.

Our Art Services:
Creating bespoke art:
Art that begins with you. We create – and co-create – bespoke artworks that reflect your story, your space, and your life. Whether inspired by your home, garden, or a meaningful moment, we design concepts tailored to you, and craft a personal art plan to bring them to life. You’re invited into the creative process: from artist visits and prototyping to final installation.
Curating art:
We find art that fits your home, garden, and life within your budget and style. With a tailored art plan, we help you grow a personal collection over time.
Artfull living
We bring art into the most meaningful moments of your life. From a flower bomb bursting with color at a special birthday to a Christmas dinner table set for the birds in your garden to an artfull midsummernight, Halloween masks, etc. We bring art into your life events.
We also help you preserve what matters most. From photoshoots to oil painted family portraits and commissioned artworks, we offer beautifully artistic ways to capture and cherish your memories for years to come.
Gifting art:
Art is one of the most meaningful gifts you can give or receive. We help you find or create the perfect piece for the special people in your life. Whether it’s a wedding, an anniversary, a milestone birthday, Mother’s Day, Christmas, graduation, a new home or even a fresh start after a divorce, art marks the moment with beauty and intention.
You can also gift our services: Give your children art for their first home, celebrate their achievements, or offer someone you love the joy of living with art.
Practicals:
We take care of the details, so you can simply enjoy the art. Framing, cleaning, hanging, installing, moving, storing, even selling, we handle it all.
Living with Daydreams membership:
Bring art into the rhythm of your life.
2–4 times a year, we visit your home with a curated selection of artwork, carefully chosen to complement your space indoors and out. Each visit reflects the season, your taste, and the ever-changing mood of your home and garden.
Alongside the art, you’ll receive inspiration and creative ideas for your life events, helping you integrate beauty and imagination into special moments and meaningful milestones.
With each new season, we refresh and reorganize your collection introducing new pieces for summer, storing others for the winter. This evolving experience ensures your home always feels alive with creativity.
Your membership includes a tailored mix of all the above, uniquely designed to suit your space, your style, & your story.

The art
The artists
Because of our backgrounds we have access to an unusual pool of artists around the world. We don’t represent them, but work with them. We have had the privilege to work with many great talents out there, from Wong kar Wai, to Hoyte van Hoytema, to Toilet paper Magazine, too many to list
here. But we also work a lot with local talent, know where to find unexpected arts and crafts(wo)men and are always on the lookout for new, up and coming talent to collaborate with.
Creating bespoke art
We carefully select artists who are a true match for each project, which is why we’re highly selective about who we collaborate with. Especially when creating bespoke art for our clients, collaboration is essential. That’s why, in developing our art plans, we work closely with artists and actively involve them in the process, we’re in it together. It’s a great pleasure to work closely with artists. Developing art together will bring you closer to the work and the artists themselves.
Art projects
We’re devoloping various art projects at the moment.
