This Soulful Jamaican Home Is a Love Letter to Beautiful Caribbean Living 🇯🇲

In this episode of Home Frequency Jamaica, we visit Periwinkle, the hillside home of an avid art and antiques collector.

Perched in the hills above Kingston, this soulful, tranquil home reflects a life shaped by art, antiques, nature and a deep sense of connection — to Jamaica, to the people who came before, and to the beauty of everyday life.

Through conversation and quiet moments at home, we discover a richly personal collection of art, ceramics and antiques; a lush garden alive with tropical birds; and the routines and rituals that give Periwinkle its particular character. It is a portrait not simply of a beautiful home, but of a beautiful way of living.

Home Frequency Jamaica is a video magazine exploring beautiful, characterful homes across Jamaica and the people who live in them.

New episodes and editorial shorts explore thoughtfully designed homes and offer intimate portraits of domestic life across Jamaica.

Our second episode of Home Frequency takes us to Periwinkle, a soulful hillside home above Kingston, filled with art, antiques, ceramics, and the accumulated treasures of a life.

This episode is particularly special to me because its subject is my mother.

She is also one of the people who first taught me how to see — how to notice and appreciate beauty in the everyday, and, perhaps more importantly, how to create it.

The way a table is set, the objects we choose to live with, a garden tended over time, good food, music, conversation — all of these small things contribute to the experience of home and to the texture of a life.

Her influence has had a great deal to do with honing my own perception of beauty and, inevitably, with the sensibility that informs Home Frequency.

In this episode, we explore her relationship with art and antiques, her belief in being a custodian of the home and garden rather than simply its owner, and some of the quiet rituals and pleasures that make Periwinkle distinctly hers.

It is an honour to have her and her home featured in our second episode.

Landscaping is incredible. The interior is amazing with how each color complements the next room so the flow is great 🤩 I am a huge fan of the bed it’s like waking up in a dream space and your oneness with the nature around you makes it so harmonious. Perfection! Such an extension of your spirit ❤

What a beautiful property. The styling is just perfect. I hope I get to sit in that garden one day just to breath and listen to the birds.

I’ve had the opportunity to see this lovely home and love the vibes. The garden, the tea seatings, the lushness and of course the beautiful collection of artworks and colors.
