Gaggenau appliances and MDF rattan-look cabinetry with Catchii pulls distinguish the kitchen. The kitchen backsplash is a mural inspired by Giorgio Morandi’s still life paintings. I f there is any constant in the life of Madelon Oudshoorn Spaargaren, owner of Amsterdam-based design studio MOS Interiors, it is travel. As a child, she was raised peripatetically among Australia, England, Venezuela and Oman. Even as an adult, when she settled in her native Netherlands with her husband and four children – two boys and two girls – “We moved a lot in Amsterdam,” she admits, adding by way of explanation with a sardonic smile, “We do like renovating homes.” Her globe-trotting, Oudshoorn Spaargaren explains, “exposed me early to different cultures, histories and aesthetics. Traveling has become my greatest addiction. I am endlessly fascinated by what drives people and civilizations. I return home with stories, knowledge, fabrics and objects found along the way, all of which inevitably find their place in my interiors. If I could, I would live as a nomad.”
