About
Hello,
Thanks for dropping by, I’m Carole and I’m an Interior Designer in the London area.
I trained at the renowned KLC School of Design and I’m an Associate Member of the British Institute of Interior Design (BIID).
I started this blog as a way to collect and share anything that inspires me, whether it‘s a designer’s portfolio, a gorgeous house, a jaw dropping hotel, a fantastic new product or a beautiful shopping website. The odd celebrity home might creep in too.
Occasionally I’ll share a personal project.
When I’m not designing or blogging, I’m either backpacking around the world or re-arranging my friends’ bookcases. I’m not even joking.
If you would like to contact me for advice, or just to say hello, I would love to hear from you.
Carole King.
I believe in intellectual property rights, providing links, citing sources, and crediting inspiration where appropriate.

When collaborating with marketers and PR professionals, I handle myself professionally and abide by basic journalistic standards.
I always present my honest opinions to the best of my ability.






















Just wanted to say that we’re loving your blog – truly inspirational!
Thanks Tessa

Hi Jo, that’s great news. Glad to be of service
Carole, i’ve just bought a victorian masionette in highgate. It is in need of some real TLC and i really need some help/advice as ive never embarked on something like this before. I want to add a modern dimension but keeping with some of the lovely period features such as the book cases and staircase. The lighting is also something that needs to be addressed. Im on a really tight budget as everything went into the house but am in desperate need of someone with experience. CAn you help!? yours sincerley Ash
Thanks for your enquiry Ash. I’ve just sent you an email. Regards, Carole
Dear Carole, I just want to say I am in love with your blog!!!
I am from Peru but I lived and worked 4 years in London and you have no idea how much I am missing all the cute stores, the markets, tea houses, everything. I am also an interior designer. I worked for Tessa Kennedy Design. I am forwarding her your blog. I am sure she will love it as much as I do.
Best of lucks,
Isday
