Belle Epoque……………..

April 26, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Who are you? I am Suzie Ball, owner of Belle Epoque in York Street, Broadstairs  – a boutique shop specialising in antique and vintage hand painted French furniture, architectural and decorative antiques, textiles, quirky finds and bespoke upholstery.  I offer a sourcing, upholstery and painting service.  I am an interior designer, stylist and house couturier.  I am a passionate collector, creative writer and photographer and act as a consultant on many artistic projects.    Why Broadstairs?  I knew many people in Broadstairs who welcomed the prospect of being able to purchase unique pieces for their home in […]

Sepake……………………………

April 19, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Who are you?  Sepake. 35. Curator. Why Margate? To tell you the truth I wasn’t interested in moving to Margate initially, I was looking at the other towns in Thanet. A friend of mine who now lives in Margate gave me very good advice. He said go and sit in a café and see how you feel. So I followed his advice and went to sit in the Mad Hatter’s Tea Shop in the old town. There was a wonderful […]

Fontaine Decorative…………

April 12, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Why Margate?  Stuart is originally from the area and has always wanted to come back.  How do you define style?  We see it as a natural expression of your own individuality. If you were an animal, what would you be?  Stuart – Definitely a Staffie because of their boundless happiness!  Kiel – a fly on the wall. If you could go back and live in another era from […]

Julian…………..

April 5, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Who are you? I am a lot of things, a filmmaker, painter, gym obsessive and writer. I am obsessed by ‘personas’, so I am many different people. But not a ‘career’ driven person, and never a ‘square’. But I make money from manufacturing collectible dolls. Why Broadstairs? I still have a flat in London, but for me, down Thanet way, it’s got to be Broadstairs. Utterly unpretentious British seaside town with a gorgeous front and great people. How do you […]
