belma gaudio collector questionnaire art collection london koibird

Belma Gaudio, founder of the London fashion, homeware, and wellness boutique Koibird, opens her art-filled London home to CULTURED magazine, offering a rare glimpse into her eclectic collection. The article, presented as a collector questionnaire, features works by René Magritte, Lucio Fontana, Christina Quarles, and others, photographed by Mary McCartney. Gaudio discusses her childhood as a refugee from Bosnia and Herzegovina, her instinct for collecting objects from Barbies to snakeskins, and how her global upbringing shaped her eye for mixing eras and styles—from traditional Italian to contemporary.
