Hi, I'm Maia.

(Pronounced Maya)

I'm a visually obsessed, native New Yorker, who's always searching for the coolest in design, food & travel. 

Over the last 5 years, I left a well established career in healthcare to pursue my passion for design and writing.  This website is my little piece of inspiration, thoughts & adventures as I seek out the most creative spaces  & experiences around the world.

I hope you find this inspiring & share with me what inspires you as well! I'd love to hear from you. Thank you for visiting!

xx,

Maia

It's Here: A Killer New Restaurant in Amsterdam

It's Here: A Killer New Restaurant in Amsterdam

Heading to Amsterdam sometime soon? If so, you are in luck! Kimpton Hotels has just opened their first boutique hotel destination outside of the U.S. 

The Kimpton Dewitt Hotel, houses the new Wyers Restaurant and adjacent coffee shop, Miss Louisa, which were both designed by Studio Modijefsky. This restaurant and cocktail bar has room for 140 guests and was home to Firma Wyers, a Dutch textiles company, which inspired the interior design. I’m into everything in this space, from the portraits on the wall to the herringbone floors to the shades of muted greens.
