‘The ache for home lives in all of us, the safe place where we can go as we are and not be questioned,’ wrote poet, author and activist Maya Angelou. And creating a welcoming and cosy home, a blissful and inviting space that acts as a cocoon, is paramount. Home should be an individual sanctuary tailored completely to one’s needs and use, incorporating a luxury crafted scheme that seamlessly blends quality with aesthetics and showcases warmth and harmonious design.

When in 1880 textile designer William Morris declared, ‘Have nothing in your home that you do not know to be useful or believe to be beautiful,’ his statement was, in many ways, an environmental precursor to today’s sustainable interior design ethos.
