“The best design combines form and function with personality,” says the bubbly Heuman, a native Swede trained in the office of British style mandarin Nicky Haslam , who describes her mischievous, family-friendly aesthetic as combining “a Scandinavian attention to detail with the desire to create something original and characterful.” Bespoke furnishings (think a bed perched atop white-wood lion’s paws) meet fabrics and wallpaper of decidedly mirthful mien (a dining room appears to be encased entirely in penciled doodles) in fresh-faced rooms that Heuman conjures up from Nantucket, Massachusetts, to Hamburg, Germany. A burgeoning line of idiosyncratic, craftsman-made home furnishings is gaining steam—her Dodo Egg Light, which resembles a large egg crossed with a pineapple, has become a cognoscenti favorite—and 2021 will see a book published about her interiors. ► London ; beataheumanom
