Moving to Pimlico Road from their iconic Mayfair showroom, home to Nancy Lancaster’s Yellow Room, heralded the start of a new era for the decorators, who are as practiced at creating 21st century interiors as they are at working on historic buildings.
Commissions range from some of Britain’s most notable stately homes to modern city apartments, from ranches in America to ski chalets in Europe and tropical beach houses in the Caribbean. Boardrooms, restaurants, yachts and private jets add variety to the mix.
The client list (resolutely confidential) includes royalty and celebrities, businessmen and women, bohemians, and many in between.

Country Life is unlike any other magazine: the only glossy weekly on the newsstand and the only magazine that has been guest-edited by HRH The King not once, but twice. It is a celebration of modern rural life and all its diverse joys and pleasures — that was first published in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year. Our eclectic mixture of witty and informative content — from the most up-to-date property news and commentary and a coveted glimpse inside some of the UK's best houses and gardens, to gardening, the arts and interior design, written by experts in their field — still cannot be found in print or online, anywhere else.
