What made you feel like designing jewelry ?

The meeting, in Ibiza, of a person who mixed good taste and craftsmanship, with finesse and character. I found a source of inspiration in that person's creations. The transformation of raw materials into jewelry is a noble form of art that fascinated me right away. That is why, when I came back to Belgium, I decided to follow a training, to set one foot in the world of the precious, Very quickly I decided to specialize in jewelry design, because what I liked above all, it is the creativity and ideas. Attention to details, patience and techniques were acquired during my workshop time.

What are your sources of inspiration ?

My daily life, my friends and travel. I am surrounded by creative friends that inspire my daily life and therefore the KMH universe. My husband is a tattoo artist and because we're very interested in each others' world, we influence each others' work quite a lot. This creative process is repeated with all things in life and every sincere encounter crossing my path. 

What does jewelry represents for you ?

Jewelery is way more than just a prop, it represents a part of you and you have the choice to show it  off or not. I'm touched by the fragility and hidden parts of things, People love it when everything is revealed, but I’m not like that. There's a certain part of confidentiality in GOLD's jewels, represented by KMH

The GOLD collection has to be seen as a day to day thing. The collection enjoys the luxury of being wearable in all situations, even if it needs to be discreet. Those are rough and have raw shapes, but never extravagant in the way it was crafted. I'm someone who does not always take the time to associate things together, and therefor it seemed obvious to me that jewelry needs to adapt to us and not the opposite.

Do you feel close to the universe or your Filles à Papa's friends ?

FAP remixes classics and ways of life. They allow girls to have fun without waiting for the fever of the night. There are no rules, everything is allowed and yet everything is sincere. I feel very close to them as a brand, as I’m their number one fan. For me, dressing up is a way of expressing myself. And as I told you earlier, I find my inspiration in my daily life. And they are part of it. ;-)
