Marta’s Interior Magic
Madrid-born creative Marta de la Rica learned to love antiques at her father’s knee, and following a childhood spent browsing brocantes, she launched her own design studio, curating exquisite interiors. Here she shares the collectibles catching her eye…
A Note From Marta
“My fascination with interior design was born from childhood trips to flea markets with my father, a passionate collector of antiques. The excitement of stumbling upon a special piece never grew old, and it was through these adventures that I developed a love of fine details and artisanal craftsmanship. Today I enjoy finding the soul and story in objects, spaces and collections. I believe it is the addition of soulful objects that creates interiors which stand the test of time – spaces to be lived in, chairs for sitting on, tables for talking over late at night. It is in the living that materials achieve their patina; it’s through small daily acts that a room comes into its own.”
“I adore both new and ‘found’ pieces; objects that are statement-making yet practical too, and that weave together humour and curiosity.”
