Fab Friday with Vicente Wolf

This Fab Friday, I’ve got an extra special treat for you! I’m here with Vicente Wolf, design maven, eclectic collector, and world traveler. This man has tackled everything, from multinational conglomerates to private homes, hotels, and restaurants, and he approaches every project he takes on with a unique global perspective. Having recently visited the VW Showhouse, I can tell you that Vicente knows how to create intrigue not only with his designs, but with his collections, which include rare antiques and hand-picked artifacts.
