And we’re off (again!). Ben and I are headed to the beautiful Côte d’Azur to work on a story for an upcoming issue of CARA. I’ve been dreaming up shots for weeks now, but one of the things I’m most excited about is a visit to E-1027, Eileen Gray’s modernist villa in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin.

Described by The Guardian as “a lost legend of 20th-century architecture” it has been undergoing restoration for 16 years, and only opened earlier this year. 

We’ll be staying in Cannes and Nice, and road-tripping our way up and down the coast, cameras in hand (along with the Lisa Eldridge French pharmacie shopping list). I’ll no doubt be instagrammin‘ a whole load along the way, so find me there.
