I was still working from my office, but COVID-19 lockdowns were rapidly spreading around the world. Kate\u2019s new book <em>\u00c9lan: The Interior Design of Kate Hume<\/em>, first set to launch in March, had then been pushed back to June. Which, at the time, seemed maybe plausible in some form. Then the year 2020 turned upside down, albeit with some silver linings, and now here we are in October and \u00c9lan will finally be available at the beginning of November! If you love design, Kate Hume\u2019s elan (<em>energy, style, and enthusiasm<\/em>, for those who aren\u2019t familiar with this word!), along with her keen sense of color, appreciation for the artisanal, and ability to create elegant, comfortable homes are sure to delight you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>First, a little about Kate Hume<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Raised in Buckinghamshire, Kate Hume has been practicing interior design internationally for over 20 years. Based between Amsterdam and southern France, Kate and her eponymous firm have created everything from high-rise residences and family beach houses to country manors and boutique hotels.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Portrait-Kate-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Portrait-Kate-1-671x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\u00c9lan: The Interior Design of Kate Hume\" class=\"wp-image-48268\" width=\"710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Portrait-Kate-1-671x1024.jpg 671w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Portrait-Kate-1-196x300.jpg 196w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Portrait-Kate-1.jpg 710w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 671px) 100vw, 671px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Kate Hume<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate\u2019s early career as a fashion stylist informs her work along with her appreciation for the timeless craftsmanship of artisans and the many artists whom she involves in her projects. In addition to interiors, Kate is also a renowned glass designer, and, together with her husband and collaborator Frans van der Heijden, designs timeless pieces of furniture showcased in their Heijden Hume collection.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u00c9lan: The Interior Design of Kate Hume<\/em> is her latest project and a must for every interior aficionado.

My mother is a very good seamstress so I was always getting her to make things for me from as early as I can remember. She made all of my clothes and my sister&#8217;s clothes. We could give her anything and she would make it. So I guess it was that too.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: What led to your decision to leave fashion and start your furniture business, Heijden Hume, with your husband?<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: We were in the film business. He was a director for commercials and I was styling. And we basically had that company and were doing all sorts of things for that all over the world. We were based in New York when we were busy with that.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then we bought a summer house in France and couldn\u2019t find any furniture that we liked. Which is strange when you think about what\u2019s on the market now. But for some reason there just didn\u2019t seem to be much. It was a while ago honestly.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So we started making things. He started making furniture and was quite good at it. He always had made bits and pieces all his life and I had grown up with it also because my dad did that. Again it was from a similar background. So we just started making our own stuff. We were really intent on designing this house that we\u2019d bought, well any property we had, it was always our property first, where we would experiment.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.katehume.com\/furniture\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"994\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p055.jpg\" alt=\"Interior by Kate Hume featuring bookcase design by Heijden Hume\" class=\"wp-image-48270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p055.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p055-214x300.jpg 214w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><figcaption><em>Interior by Kate Hume featuring custom bookcase design<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: After starting Heijden Hume you transitioned into interior design, tell us about this.<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: Largely it was because someone saw the furniture and really liked it. I was promoting that and then this woman said \u201coh could you do my house, I don\u2019t know who to ask.\u201d The industry, I think, at least in Europe, has somehow exploded. There wasn\u2019t so much around then. I mean there were these factories that made dining chairs and tables, but they were all pretty standard. Each country had its thing, there were the Danish ones, the French ones, the Dutch ones, and the German ones, all those established old companies. There weren\u2019t so many new innovative companies popping up, and now of course it is much more normal.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p141.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"980\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p141.jpg\" alt=\"pink and gray living room interior design with gold lighting\" class=\"wp-image-48271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p141.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p141-217x300.jpg 217w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bykoket.com\/guilty-pleasures\/casegoods\/embrace-cocktail-table-ottoman.php?utm_source=LH_Blog_article&amp;utm_medium=banner&amp;utm_campaign=Banner_Article&amp;utm_content=embrace_cocktail_table\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/ext-campaign\/article\/kk-embrace-cocktail-table-750.jpg\" alt=\"embrace cocktail table koket\" width=\"500\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: What led to your desire to work with glass and start the Kate Hume glass collection?<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: At our first trade show I thought we needed some accessories because it was like three tables, some chairs, and a mirror. And again that was the strange thing, there was nothing. You could buy vintage glass in the states, there were a couple of really good places in California. As a stylist, I knew the vintage resources. But there just didn\u2019t seem to be much out in the market being made. Unless it was really craft at a high-end level or really bad craft.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At first, I just chose glass because that was what was possible. Because you don&#8217;t actually have to learn how to do it. You work with craftspeople that do know how to do it. Because there is no way I would ever catch up or even be strong enough to make the things that they make for me. So I am there with the process, every single time we make anything. And I am involved in the production but not in a heavy lifting, literally, way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.katehume.com\/glass\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"426\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p016-17.jpg\" alt=\"kate hume glass cyan\" class=\"wp-image-48272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p016-17.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p016-17-300x180.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I didn\u2019t know about glass at all. I was really into ceramics, and I still am, but I realized I would have to really go and study that, but I thought I don\u2019t have time, I need it by September and this is July. So I better find someone that can just be on board with me and make what I design. And that&#8217;s really basically what happened.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, it wasn\u2019t necessarily a choice of the material, but it developed into that. But you know I love all sorts of vessel type objects in any material actually. So that\u2019s sort of a passion. I collect more ceramics, I don\u2019t collect anybody else&#8217;s glass, I am not particularly a fan myself of other people\u2019s glass. I like my own obviously and have plenty of that. But I just don\u2019t really particularly like other people\u2019s very much, but I love other people\u2019s ceramics because I can\u2019t do it, or metalwork, or timber work, anything like that that I\u2019m not doing.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: Tell us about how \u00c9lan came to be! First, what led to your decision to do a book? And how did co-author Linda O\u2019Keeffe become involved?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: I was just sort of batting the idea around really for quite a while. I knew Linda&#8230;I mean I know books are advantageous for publicity and so forth&#8230;but I also thought it\u2019s about time. We had enough things we could say that are at least slightly different from what we\u2019ve seen around. And it&#8217;s a European point of view to some extent.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I was talking to Linda about it, asking her advice because she had written a couple of interviews with me, and then the idea just came up, let\u2019s do it together. It was very organic. And then it sort of went away for a while, we all got busy with other things. It\u2019s been a long time coming actually, I mean really, I\u2019m like come on let\u2019s get this thing published!<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.rizzolibookstore.com\/elan-interior-design-kate-hume\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"860\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Book-Cover-with-shadow.jpg\" alt=\"elan the interior design of kate hume\" class=\"wp-image-48273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Book-Cover-with-shadow.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/Book-Cover-with-shadow-248x300.jpg 248w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"The Inspiring Story of Linda O\u2019Keeffe: Passion, Drive &amp; Warm Heartedness (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/2020\/03\/20\/the-inspiring-story-of-linda-okeeffe-passion-drive-warm-heartedness\/\" target=\"_blank\">The Inspiring Story of Linda O\u2019Keeffe: Passion, Drive &amp; Warm Heartedness<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: Where did the name \u00c9lan come from?<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: That was my husband\u2019s idea actually, he thought it suited the way I am. We wanted a word that looks good written down. We\u2019re well aware of the fact that most people don\u2019t know what it means, at least in the United States. But it doesn\u2019t matter.

Also for me this was sort of the best of the last ten years, so do I really want to wait another ten years? I don\u2019t know.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I wouldn\u2019t mind making a book on another point of view. That might be more interesting. I think if I did another book it would be more about mixing things up, something cross-media, but not just mine, everybodys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But my husband art directed this book and I mean honestly I think he wanted to shoot himself. He was like why did I say I was going to do this. He is very good at this but it was a lot of work. When you launch a product like this, you have to think of a concept behind it. That&#8217;s the first hurdle. And then you have to get everyone to agree that&#8217;s the concept and it&#8217;s going to look like this.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The thing about it is that it has to say something about me. You&#8217;re really putting yourself out there. So, he art directed it and photographed it. And then my sister was writing for it, it was really a group effort. And then there was Linda as well, editing, editing, editing, editing. It was interesting, I don\u2019t know if I would go through it again. I would like to do it in a different group maybe. Not that I don\u2019t like this group of people<strong> <\/strong>[<em>giggle<\/em>]<strong>.<\/strong> But if I did it again it would have to be totally different.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: In \u00c9lan your love of color is highlighted, a signature you have also become known for. Do you attribute anything in particular to your love for color?<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: I love it and then I don\u2019t need it at all, as well. So it doesn\u2019t really matter. I think it\u2019s just a question of what\u2019s right for that moment. What\u2019s right for that client, and what\u2019s right for that location. I don&#8217;t know I would ever want to live in a house that\u2019s completely white, I don\u2019t think that\u2019s me, because I like texture, and I like invention and I like prints. I like to see stuff and there is so much stuff out there.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p122-123.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"710\" height=\"463\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p122-123.jpg\" alt=\"orange and brown library interior design\" class=\"wp-image-48275\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p122-123.jpg 710w, https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/KateHume_Elan_p122-123-300x196.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 710px) 100vw, 710px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So color has become a sort of second nature in a way.

I think that\u2019s really important. You have to have your own voice. And you will find it. You probably have it already if you want to do this, but you\u2019ll find it if you don\u2019t.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Strangely I think it&#8217;s an industry you are sort of born with, so it&#8217;s a very difficult thing to come up into and say I am going to do this as a job if you don&#8217;t have a knack for it. But there are all sorts of parts of the industry, like the financial side of it, or on the promotional side, which I\u2019d love to have more of that ability. So there is never a reason not to be in the industry. You could have an incredibly successful design firm but you could be the promotional-financial person and somebody else be the designer, there are so many elements to the business. But I think if you are a designer, it\u2019s like breathing really, I really think it\u2019s just something you know in your heart what\u2019s right, and everyone\u2019s different.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s never too late to begin, which is quite pertinent to me. I was doing all sorts of things before I got to this. You can have a career change at 40. I wasn\u2019t scared of it. Having a career change at any point is a daring thing to do. But don\u2019t be frightened of that. Sometimes coming to this business later can be an advantage, you\u2019ve lived a bit, you know what you like, you\u2019ve traveled, seen things, you know what works.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: Do you have any mottos you like to live by?<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: I was just thinking, every cloud has a silver lining. It sounds so tacky, but I am wondering what it is right now as we are facing total lockdown. The silver lining right now is probably that ecologically the world will recover a few carbon footprints. Good comes out of bad situations. It is not always very easy to believe that, but it helps.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Lh: What\u2019s next for Kate Hume?<\/strong><br><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kate: Project wise we are doing quite a few nice projects. We have a big loft in Berlin which is a very peculiar shape of a building so it\u2019s been very challenging. And then we have a big huge, huge house near Moscow. And we are doing a 17th-century Captain\u2019s house in a beautiful village in Holland.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I really want to try to go out and meet people with the book. Originally the book was supposed to be out this month, I really thought I would be on the road in March. It has been pushed back to June, but by then we don\u2019t know where we will be&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>And here we are in October, almost to November 3rd! So at long last, congratulations to Kate and the entire team behind \u00c9lan on the fabulous celebration of Kate Hume\u2019s beautiful designs! And for all the fans out there, Kate looks forward to getting out in person with her book as soon as she can safely do so, so stay tuned!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Buy \u00c9lan (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rizzolibookstore.com\/elan-interior-design-kate-hume\" target=\"_blank\">Order a copy of \u00c9lan<\/a> and explore more of Kate Hume at <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"www.katehume.com (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"http:\/\/www.katehume.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.katehume.com<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Interview by Anna Beck Bimba<\/em><br><em>All Photographs by Frans van der Heijden<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"20 New Inspiring Home Decor Books Launching Fall 2020 (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lovehappensmag.com\/blog\/2020\/08\/12\/20-new-inspiring-home-decor-books-launching-fall-2020\/\" target=\"_blank\">20 New Inspiring Home Decor Books Launching Fall 2020<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was March 10th, 2020 when Amsterdam-based interior designer Kate Hume and I got on the phone for this interview&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":48277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[19,6937,6924],"tags":[662,1247,2866,7031,5549],"class_list":["post-48267","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-architecture-and-design","category-interviews-profiles","category-top-designers","tag-best-interior-designers","tag-colorful-accessories","tag-interior-design-books","tag-lh-interview","tag-top-interior-designers"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v27.6 (Yoast SEO v28.0) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Discover \u00c9lan: The Interior Design of Kate Hume, Lh Exclusive Interview<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"If you love design, you will love \u00c9lan: The Interior Design of Kate Hume!
