We’re just finishing the redesign and refurbishment of this flat on Clerkenwell Road, and here’s a peek at the finished home. It’s a wonderful time as everything comes together, and all the different trades complete their work. Now we can see the beautiful finishes and fittings that were chosen. We’re also thrilled to have been […]
I’m excited to be joining the British Institute of Interior Design‘s panel discussion on artificial intelligence (AI) at Decorex next week. Along with Susie Rumbold, Preet Anand and BIID President Angela Bardino we’ll be talking about “Balancing Creativity and Technology: The Role of AI in Interior Design”. As the use of AI continues to grow […]
Earlier this month I was thrilled to be invited by Cosentino to visit their HQ in Spain. ‘Designing a Meaningful Future’ was the theme of their first European event for interior designers and architects from across Europe – with an agenda that spanned sustainability, production, future trends, and interior design inspiration. As a manufacturer of […]
We’ve often tackled a diverse range of interior design projects – both in their location and the style of the properties. This variety makes the job of an interior designer challenging, and it’s also a big part of what makes the work so rewarding. And as a result we never end up doing the same […]
We’ve adapted so much of how we work during lockdown. We’re working very successfully remotely, although we miss meeting our clients and suppliers in person, and visiting our sites quite so often. There are little things we miss too… the places that give us inspiration, the galleries and the museums. Probably none more than the […]
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 […]
Whenever I’m travelling it’s a chance to look for ideas and inspiration. There was plenty of that in Amsterdam last month, and also an opportunity to do a bit of design sourcing. Not one to waste any time, before our itinerary for the CEDIA conference started, I dashed into the old centre of Amsterdam to […]
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 […]
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 […]
This year marks the centenary of the Bauhaus Design School. Founded by Walter Gropius in 1919, the school had a profound and lasting influence on design, architecture, and here I touch on a few highlights – the people and their design work. The school brought together art and architecture, creativity and construction. Pursuing this combined […]
