My Favorite Things

On any given day, Ronan Mckenzie could be photographing a Mulberry campaign; curating an exhibit at the Victoria and Albert Museum; designing sculptural silhouettes for her clothing line, Selasi; or interviewing a rising artist for the podcast HOME Impressions. In the rare moments she isn’t at work, the Frieze 91 committee member turns her attention to her new London flat, which she’s filled with quietly elegant and enduring essentials, as shown below
