In Episode 8 of Handle with Care, Adam and Laura meet interior decorator, furniture designer, scenographer, and friend of the pod Marie-Anne Derville, who has in recent years become one of the most interesting and widely followed decorators in the industry. Over tea in her wonderful apartment in the centre of Paris, they explore her distinctive and intuitive way of approaching interior decoration and her own practice.

Marie-Anne discusses her early days in the world of design alongside Pierre Yovanovitch, her collaboration with Nicolas Ghesquière and Louis Vuitton, some of her key influences, from Madeleine Castaing to Louise de Vilmorin, and her passion for gaffer tape. All with wit and humour!
