My WFH Space: Caroline Belhumeur

Fashion : Meet

23 April 2020

As we all adjust to our newly conflated living/working conditions - the stream of conference call notifications and emails, general noise of children/flatmates/partners/dogs in the background, endless cups of tea and futile attempts to resist the biscuit tin, we've asked our creative friends – today we have Caroline Belhumeur, creative director of Vince – to share with us their personal "Working From Home" spaces, to share with you. So have a nosey poke around...

I'm staying sane these days by...
Being surrounded by my family. We really enjoy each other’s company, thankfully, and share a love of California’s beautiful nature, walks in the canyons and gardening. We’ve also been working out with Dance Church and I’m teaching my daughters how to hand knit, which I’m afraid seems to have turned into an obsession.

My workspace must include the following in order for me to feel calm, creative and productive:
White walls with a view of the canyons and sky; this is my canvas for ideas, a place to clear my mind and imagine. It also includes books, a portable speaker for music vibes and my Vince team on Zoom who inspire me every day.

I'm staying optimistic because...
There is really no other way to be. As designers we are future thinkers, we have to look around the corner and believe in the brightness and positivity of what is beyond. I also believe humankind will come out of this more united, having learned not to take this world or each other for granted. I hope we will also remember how to pause in the everyday.
