"Bunzlau Castle suits me perfectly"

Bunzlau Castle products are also loved beyond our borders. A true enthusiast is Kayte Grammer from the United States. Kayte did the interior styling of her home in Los Angeles and her vacation home in Palm Springs herself. Her favourite Bunzlau Castle products make her feel at home in both properties. "I have eight teapots, being English, I drink tea all day and in every place."

Stimulating creativity

"I consciously choose to spend a lot of time with the children. They grow up so fast. I am grateful for the opportunity to be there for them. I want to give them creativity and a stable and peaceful home. Every day, we have breakfast together. Then the children head upstairs, where they are home-schooled. This is when I go to the gym or take the dogs for a walk. I am also very involved in interior styling and architecture. I do a lot of research, and look for inspiration daily. It's my creative outlet."

Bunzlau Castle

"It all started with a single teapot. I was in a store in New York where they sold Bunzlau Castle and I immediately fell in love. I wasn't familiar with the brand and immediately started searching for more collections. I now have eight teapots, scattered throughout our two houses. I'm English, so I drink tea all day long from the Bunzlau Castle Farmers' mug. I love to cook and love that the dinnerware is so strong but also beautiful. It's a treat to take a dish out of the oven and put the beautiful, warm Bunzlau Castle dish on the table. It's perfect for everyday and festive use alike. Just the thought of a warm garlic roll served on one of my Bunzlau Castle Baquette Dishes is enough to work up my appetite. The brand has become part of my identity. I will buy my sister, our housekeeper and everyone dear to me a beautiful Bunzlau Castle gift at Christmas."

England and America

"As I was born in England, I still miss my homeland. Especially my family, of course. But also the food, the English restaurants, London, and my favourite beach. California is also fantastic though. We have everything here: the ocean, the mountains, and the desert. And the atmosphere is relaxed. You can feel free to walk down the street here in flip-flops and no makeup."

Interior

"Our daily life takes place in Los Angeles. My husband already owned this house and I loved it immediately. It has a French style, with a beautiful, spacious living room. Perfectly suited for parties. We do it justice and celebrate to the fullest here. I did the interior styling for both houses myself. I used to be somewhat reserved about combining colours and patterns. Back then, I used a lot of greys and whites. But the house in Palm Springs in particular was made for colour. So I'm much more exuberant with colour use now. I mix and match and dare to go wild. I love colourful wallpaper and the beautiful deep pink that you often see in Mexico. And I love flowers! If it is beautiful to the eye, then it is good and yet calm."

Favourite moments

"I am very blessed. The children bring a lot of life to the party. And I enjoy that. But it's great that I can retreat here at home as well. In the morning, for example, with a delicious chocolate croissant and a good cup of coffee. And at cocktail hour. Before cooking, I enjoy a - quintessentially English - gin tonic. The perfect poolside drink."
