This lovely pic just popped up on the Instagram account of the trend setting interior design force #Martinbrudnizki and, by coincidence, I may well end up here after dinner tonight for some Jazz with other decorating greats and mates! Loose fabric banner style wall hangings (by us) dampen the acoustics and cozy up the space, […]

Just popped down to to the upholstery room to see progress on the build up of these layers for a lovely upcoming installation. Still more to add by way of cords, tassels and curtains, but it’s looking rather gorgeous to me. #SwagsAndTails #RomanBlind #WattsOfWestminster #GiltPelmet #EdwardHarpley #Passementerie #TurnellandGigon #MagicInTheMaking #TeamJonRhodes #TeaBreak

I did have some #metime yesterday which was soon filled with 2 hours of gym classes […]

I happened upon this lovely picture, posted this morning on social media by a lovely client, and with her kind permission I can share it with you. Lovely! I am very proud of this simple but perfectly proportioned window treatment that we created for a master suite in a very special #EnglishCountryHouse. The triple scalloped […]

Site measure with team #DargieLewisDesigns today, working our magic in #TheStrand. Obvs I had to be dragged screaming and kicking to that part of town (not). A few idiosyncrasies of modern architecture to deal with, nothing we can’t overcome with clever draping, which is what today’s meeting was all about. Let’s all go down the […]
