At Home With Alexandra Champalimaud

Tell us about this lovely apartment—and what a view! It’s not about my decor; I’m really living the outside. I’m an outdoors person. For example, I love the fact that the reflected light on my mirror points to the kitchen table. At night I light some candles and I have my beautiful “lantern,” as I like to call the Frank Gehry building! I will just lie here, put my music on, read my book, do my work and watch the sunset. You need a fresh palette and uncluttered mind to be creative. My home is very quiet and good for the soul. When I come home, having gone through numerous projects that are all layered and complex, I like it that everything’s easy.
