Centuries of earth turning, eras unfolding, decades bringing steady change - yet the olives can always be counted on to give their liquid gold, the palms generously offer themselves for weaving, and the people continue to enjoy getting tipsy from the
vine.
The land in Mallorca is bountiful and mindfully cultivated. Humans here make both elemental and extraordinary things with their hands and hearts. We are held by nature all around and are able to learn from its human stewards.

Meet some of the people we will spend our days with during our Guided Immersion into Nature, Craft, and Culture. February 1-8,2026.


LOIS & ALEXANDRA
Once prominent executives in the corporate world, now they are farmers of olives and almonds. Transformed by their relationship to land, they remain fastidious and creative. We’ll enjoy their delicious bounty along with their charming hospitality. (Lois is a terrific cook!)

UTA
A modern-day naturalist, she has deep knowledge of the island’s diverse edible and medicinal plants. We’ll walk with her in curiosity and delight to forage the abundant wild landscape, then join her to prepare and feast on a meal that incorporates our harvest.

LAURA
This proud, adoptive Mallorquí learned her craft from the island’s elders. She has taken the traditional weaving practices and filtered them through her modern vision to create stunning designs. We’ll visit her studio and try our hands at this ancient technique.

CATI
Rebel winemaker, trained sommelier, heiress to generations of vines. One of the most successful natural winemakers on the island, she is turning back to ancestral fruit to capture the terroir. We’ll walk the vineyard with her, then sit down for lunch and savor her vino. 

JUAN
Deeply connected to the mountains, he found a way to immerse himself further in the majestic plants, trees and flowers. He’ll take us into the hills, copper still in tow, to learn about wild plant distillation. Together, we’ll engage in the witchy alchemies that wrest fragrance from flora.

Just a few spots left, join us!

In a stretch of hills in coastal Provence we found what we were looking for. Considered, beautiful craftsmanship, with Theodora, pictured in her atelier where her family also works. Her maman creates patchwork from antique textiles. Her boyfriend is a graphic designer and also dj’s at the shop sometimes. The papa turns silver spoons into bracelets and collaborates on the peat and flora fired kilns that make Theodora’s work so elemental.
Her ceramics are now on my most wanted list!

The villagers hang out and chat over coffee on the cobble streets, and in their little galleries. The works of these noble amateurs evokes palpable charm as well, worth the visit.

Along the coast, poetic reminders of a deeply historical past are dotted everywhere, public, open air lavoirs, tiled fishmongers’ trading spots, terracotta floors in all the shapes!

Barbara Hepworth’s lines and forms were an interlude to the Mediterranean vistas during a visit to a dreamy gallery founded by legendary art patrons of the past.

We stayed in a hidden away stone home, restored so very meticulously. A place that is undergoing a transformation, soon to offer quiet, magical, small group hospitality.

Ah, the food.

Who’d like to join for a Slow Design & Culture Immersion in the coastal hills of Provence?

Next years’ calendar plans are hatching. Several special trips are slowly cooking for 2026 and 2027….

The team.
I met Sarah and Enrique of Melampo through mutual friends.
We hit it off immediately.
Unbeknown to us, Enrique and I had lived a block away from each other in our college years in NYC, participating in the same arty events and little downtown world. And here we are, Mallorca bringing us together.
Sarah and I can hardly stop talking about all the independent creative people and things that the island is drawing in, delighted by eclectic, original design and people. So we decided to throw an event, gathering us all together, tantalizing us with flavors, sounds, sights, and items to bring home that make us happy, inspired, and stylish ;).

Thanks !! to Andreas and Mica of much loved and missed Casa Wald, also culture keepers on the island for the intro.

Our stay in a 14th century finca, nestled in the majestic Sierra de Tramuntana, is enough to warrant the trip. The mountains are one big reason I decided to make my home in Mallorca.
I was bewitched by this particular spot. Steeped in heritage and simple charms, the ages old family
home and grounds are comfortable, elegant, rustic.

Activities and experiences are planned now, just a question of how many we can fit into our precious sojourn together on the island..
We promise to leave time to rest and simply take her in.

DELIGHTED to host with Laura Chavez Silverman of The Outside Institute.
A labor of love and the culmination of 60+ years of professional and life experience - trust us, we know what we’re about. Why do we invite you to share in poetry by the ancient seaside quarry? Get wrapped up in modern flamenco performed by our hostess at home at the finca? Learn to forage and weave local palm with a badass ashtanga yogini who learned her skills from the abuelas?
Because it’s time to get beautifully real.

In November I finally made it to Morocco, the discoveries of craft made me dizzy. These Vintage Mauritanian Touareg mats caught my eye in various spots in town, placed just so, rare and striking. Turns out I know a lady who knows a guy… I was able to select some and am now at my desk with one beneath my feet. Yay!
A few lovely friends and talented interior designers placed one in a home in Portixol which they designed, in the first few fotos.

As I prepare to submit an application for an EU cultural development grant, I’m necessarily reflecting a lot on where I’ve come from and where I’m going with my work. Updating CV, LinkedIn profile, and working hard on refining a concept that brings together everything I care about and have worked towards all the years since college. Creative expression, independent entrepreneurialism, sustainability.
A trusted friend and colleague told me I was putting together a jambalaya and that the EU wouldn’t take the proposal seriously. So I refine it still, looking for excellent partners… one more to find. It is taking a beautiful and powerful shape.

Strategy and efficiency are pesky things when applied to creative endeavors. And yet culture is just that at its core - a creative endeavor - of individuals, people, brave and persistent. Then comes organization, projects and institutions….. but it starts with people.

Over next weeks I’ll share what I’m up to in the coming year/s, with you in mind - aiming to generate authentic, personal, motivating, very much lived experiences.

Info coming about slow design and culture travel in Morocco and Mallorca, and events in Mallorca over 2025 and 2026…..
