A Breath of Nature
Time spent sitting in the park, reading, or simply taking a moment to breathe provides Amalie with a counterbalance to the city’s energy. Her house also reflects this longing for nature, with plenty of natural light, organic forms, and airy fabrics that bring warmth and a sense of lightness into the rooms.
Green retreat
Those who love nature as much as Amalie find peace in their own garden. Surrounded by plants and fresh air, it offers a counterpoint to the bustle of shoots and appointments.
Born in San Francisco, raised in Paris, having lived in New York and Los Angeles, and now settled in London: Amalie Gassmann has called many places home. Today, her house reflects this very journey. As a filmmaker, photographer, and model, she has a keen eye for light, perspective, and atmosphere. This same vision shapes her interior design: every room appears meticulously staged while retaining an effortless sense of ease.
ACT I: THE ROOTS
Objects full of stories
Stepping into Amalie’s home is like embarking on a journey through her story. Amid clean lines and carefully selected design pieces, personal mementos add depth and character to the interiors. Most meaningful are the keepsakes from her Japanese grandmother, who lived to the remarkable age of 101. They keep her heritage alive and continue to inspire her every day.
'It all felt incredibly intuitive – I somehow just slipped into writing. And I've always loved visual composition and storytelling.'
Homebody
Despite her busy schedule, Amalie considers herself a true 'homebody'. Her home is her creative sanctuary – a safe haven where she can recharge and find inspiration. The interiors are intentionally understated, brought to life by distinctive statement pieces.
'In art, everything has a kind of backstory, a reason, and a process.'
Research Mode: Couch
'I love working from the couch.' It’s where books are read, films are analysed, and initial ideas take shape. Comfort is just as important as a calm, soothing environment.
Space to Focus
Amalie’s home also includes a classic workspace. The home office is functional and pared-back, blending seamlessly into the apartment’s overall aesthetic.
Minimal, but never empty!
