Margaux joined the KLD team earlier this summer as a Design Intern. It’s hard to believe how quickly the time has gone from Margaux’s arrival in the bright days of summer. And now as the crisp Autumn air arrives, Margaux finishes up her stint with KLD to return home to France.

During her time here Margaux has graced us with her cheerful, can-do attitude and her immense artistic talent. And while goodbye is always tinged with some sadness, we know this young designer is destined for some great things and a very bright future. Ahead of her final day with the team we caught up with Margaux and chatted to her about her love of nature, interiors and of course sketching!
