INDIA SWENSON-WARING

A Richmond, Virginia, transplant to Key West, India joins Archeo with degrees and experience in both landscape and jewelry design. Having traveled in East Africa and throughout Europe, she is continually inspired by the textures and lines around her, especially as revealed in gardens and architecture. In a recent project she completely renovated an arts and crafts house in Richmond. We’re also impressed with her repertoire of plant names in Latin.

Visits traveling: checks out the local flora.

Animals: loves elephants and raccoons, though not as pets.

Favorite flavors: espresso, lamb, chocolate.

Perfect moment of the day: any moment. I don’t like to be tied down.
