It’s a privilege to be a member of the judging panel for KBB Review‘s Bathroom Designer of the Year Awards. This week I spent a long and hard day with my fellow judging panel members, enjoying the short-listed designers’ presentations and deciding the winners across three categories. Kindly hosted at the fantastic Zaha Hadid designed […]
I recently wrote about our complete interior design makeover in Clerkenwell, in the City of London. The area isn’t new to us of course – we’ve completed several projects nearby and in the City of London, including an interior refurbishment in Farringdon just around the corner, and a couple of interior design projects in the […]
I’ve just contributed to the BIID’s new resource on AI in interior Design. Now live on their website, ‘AI in Interior Design: the Pitfalls and the Potential’ collects some of my thoughts on this topic, along with those from my fellow panel members from our recent Decorex Design Talk at Olympia. ‘I believe it’s important […]
Another jam-packed year, and with the added excitement of two projects completing this week! (Never again 😝) I’m so very grateful for everything that I’ve been involved with and everybody I’ve had the pleasure of working with this year. New challenges await my return in 2025, but first some much-needed R&R. We wish everybody happy […]
I was delighted to contribute my thoughts on the trend for ‘Luxury Loos’ to The Sunday Times yesterday.

The passing of designer Terence Conran this week was a sad moment. A fabulous innovator across design, home retail and architecture, who has been a great influence on me, although I didn’t realise at first. Conran founded the habitat chain of high street home stores, which had a branch in Sheffield where I grew up […]
You might already know that I don’t believe in interior design trends as a major influence on the residential design projects that I undertake for private clients. Sometimes new needs arise as a result of changes in the world though, and lately that’s been a very big and very sudden need in response to Covid-19. […]
