Karen Howes Editor

Since the early 1700s, when a winegrower first began selling cognac under his own name, the House of Rémy Martin has ascended to the apex of class and refinement. Combining sustainable viticulture policies with exceptional eaux-de-vie, Rémy Martin prides itself on the heritage of its three-centuries-old dynasty, the talent of its cellar masters and tasting committee, and its dedication to the future of the brand. As one of the biggest producers of cognac worldwide, Rémy Martin's philosophy can be traced back to their logo: the rearing centaur, its feet on the ground and its head in the stars. Karen Howes established The Interior Archive in 1994, considered to be one of Europe's leading picture agencies, as well as one of the finest interior design resources, specialising in interiors and lifestyle images by some of the world's leading photographers. She has published a series of books, which include Living in London (Simon Upton/Thames & Hudson); My Cookbook (Gerard Depardieu/Zabert Sandmann Verlag) and Luxury Minimal (Fritz von der Schulenburg/Thames & Hudson).
