At the KBB 2020 show a couple of weeks ago I joined their panel talk on Smart Homes. It was a lively discussion that represented different views on the influence of technology in the home, where it’s currently at, and where we’d like to see it heading. It’s now available to listen to on their […]
A strange week, and likely difficult for all of us in different ways – for some people very difficult. Here we’ve been continuing work in the studio in Hampshire… as normal? Well not quite. In the middle of the South Downs National Park it’s usually a lot quieter than London anyway. But this morning I […]
For the special edition of kbbreview magazine this month I wrote the first of the articles in this Design Trend special. I wrote about a design approach for our homes that I believe so strongly in… how it works… and that what results from this… Longevity. “Our homes can have a profound effect on our […]
I’m looking forward to joining the panel talk for the Kitchen & Bathroom Design Podcast next week, from KBB 2020 at Birmingham’s NEC. You can hear me talking about smart home design at the Central Bar at 2pm on Tuesday 3rd March, and afterwards on the kbbreview podcast channel here: The Kitchen & Bathroom Design […]
Last week I attended CEDIA’s Design and Build conference in Amsterdam. The event was organised to give interior designers an understanding of the very latest developments in smart home design, and to provide a glimpse of where this exciting area is heading in the future.

I’ve always loved Bridget Riley’s work, and the current retrospective at the Hayward Gallery at London’s Southbank is fantastic. Covering all of her work, from the earlier monochrome art of the 1960s, through to the more colourful pieces she produced later on. As the work became less op-art and more abstract, for me the sense […]
2019 has been another busy and rewarding year, and now it’s time for a break! We’ll be relaxing and recharging, and looking forward to the exciting range of interior design projects that are waiting for our return to the studio in January. We wish everybody happy holidays and a healthy and prosperous New Year.
Phew… almost at the end of the year! Just time for a winter update though, as there’s a lot going on in the studio at the moment. Interior design projects in both town and country, and some commercial design work mixed in with our usual private client residential design projects. In Town… Chelsea, London […]
kbbreview invited me to their Kitchen & Bathroom Design Podcast last week to talk about the concept of ‘broken plan’ in interior design. Is it the latest trend in interior design, and is it here to stay? In conversation with Dan Stronge of Jones Britain Kitchens and Managing Editor Andrew Davies we consider what people […]
I’m always interested in famous architecture and interior design projects, as they can provide so much inspiration. Reading about them isn’t the same as visiting and experiencing them for myself though. Not just to soak up the building and its interior first-hand, but also to get a feel for the setting and wider context of […]
