// MILANO

//

Milano, Italy. One of my favourite cities. Milan design week with my favourite people. How lucky am I that I get to work and travel and have FUN with my group of people. The week was filled with a lot inspiration, a lot of wine and a lot of laughs. I can’t wait to show there one day for design week. I am hoping for next year :) CKD has a product in the works. More on that another time.

// LATELY

//

From the beginning of April it has been non-stop, every day, every weekend, every moment was filled with something. A lesson, an exciting moment, a new job, another lesson, a night out, a new friend, a new opportunity, an installation. I have spent the last three days in bed because of it. I can only work for a couple of hours before my eyes start to sting and my head hurts. I’m in need of some Candice time. It’s going to be a weekend of unpacking everything that has happened and write down some intentions for everything I want to come. Feeling very grateful, exhausted, and hopeful for the future. Some photos of life lately. K going back to sleep. x C

// INTRODUCING LAND

//

// LAND LAUNCH IN LOS ANGELES

//

CKD hosted a dinner in Los Angeles celebrating the official launch of LAND. Our newest collaboration with Jenné and Harvey Newton-Haydon. I wanted our guests to feel like they were walking into LAND. We looked at every single detail, from the bespoke menus printed on our matte reflective mylar, to the 3D printed jaguars for the name holders, to the bespoke printed deck of cards, to the hand painted florals on the table. The linen tablecloth is “BAMBOO” from the collection, and the bespoke linen napkins are “ZEBRA” from the collection. We had so much fun building this. I loved dreaming up CKD in real life. Really looking forward to more of this fun :)

// HOLLYWOOD HILLS

//

A lot of good work was created out of this place.
Whenever I look at a piece installed in one of my projects I’m immediately sent back to the place I created it - sort of like when I listen to an old song. I remember the day, the smell, the location. The pieces and concepts created from this slice of heaven in the Hollywood Hills will always remind me of my most transformative and exciting memories.

// FRIDAY NIGHT IN THE STUDIO

//

Hey :) Happy Friday night. I’m in the studio finishing up some work and getting ready for another insane week next week. So much is happening. This month feels like it’s going to be one for the books. Some photos of life lately. More updates soon :) Just wanted to say hi x -C

// CONFIDENCE

//

It was a quiet peaceful feeling of “ah”, I actually can do this. I actually can get through this. I have the tools to do better this time. This doesn’t hurt like it used to. Wait, have I outgrown this? And I made myself a coffee and smiled. Confidence. What a beautiful feeling.

// INSIDE MY HEAD

//

Hey :) Some inspo lately, some work. I’m so happy January is over hellloooo February. If I had to pick a month I hate the most, it’s Jan. It’s a month of cleaning up all the bullshit left over from 2022. Heading back to LA and looking forward to starting a fresh month in a fresh new space in a fresh new area. New beginnings and so much is coming. Happy Sunday x C
