This month our contributors share their dream dinner party guests and what’s missing from their home…

Giovanni Raspini

Which household item could you not live without? A large traditional camino (fireplace) to cook Florentine steak and bruschetta.

Which home would you like to be a fly on the wall in? I would love to have been in Elvis’s home when The Beatles went to visit him.

Who’s your dream dinner party guest? I queued for four hours for the Rolling Stones concert in Rome, in the July heat. It has to be Mick Jagger.

What’s missing from your home? I love rock music, so I’d have a professional music room where I would play with my group.

Lauren Hill

Which household item could you not live without? My classic De’Longhi Icona coffee maker makes every morning better.

Which home would you like to be a fly on the wall in? Any of the royal residences to see what’s going on inside at the moment.

Who’s your dream dinner party guest? The all-time great female traveller and pilot, Amelia Earhart.

What’s missing from your home? One day, I’m going to have a sprawling, tree-filled garden.

Jony Davies

Which household item could you not live without? Without a doubt my coffee machine. I absolutely live on caffeine.

Which home would you like to be a fly on the wall in? The Kardashians. Just to witness the madness.

Who’s your dream dinner party guest? Artist Georgia O’Keeffe and photographer Ansel Adams. They were friends and worked side by side. I adore both their work, and think that dinner would have been fun.

What’s missing from your home? If I could have a studio and a darkroom at home I don’t think anyone would ever see me again.

Arabella Youens

Which household item could you not live without? A Bialetti Moka hob espresso maker. It knocks the socks off any fancier coffee machines.

Which home would you like to be a fly on the wall in? It’s got to be the White House – it could never be boring.

Who’s your dream dinner party guest? William Morris. I also think he’d be really pleased about the revival in British craft today.

What’s missing from your home? A dog flap. I get driven nuts having to let the dog out every time he spots a squirrel or cat on his turf.
