“Whilst fashions change, elegance and relevance are never out of date. The classic English look is really about the balance of comfort and beauty.”
Recognised as the foremost English decorating firm of the last 90 years, Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler continue to influence the landscape of interior design. Known for a blend of personality and elegant comfort, the decorators have, over many decades, created some of the most widely respected and iconic interiors – effortlessly mixing old and new into an unassumingly understated but recognisable style.
While the firm’s reputation as experts in country house interiors endures, the seven decorating teams utilise their scholarly understanding of history, architecture, and design to decorate homes across all periods and styles. Commissions continue to include important town and country houses in Europe and America as well as cottages, contemporary houses and apartments, yachts, chalets and beach houses across the globe.
Our process is uniquely tailored to consider each client’s needs and aspirations, creating bespoke interiors that provide elegant solutions to the brief. With tireless attention to every detail, we will develop a home that is not only beautiful and comfortable but functions seamlessly with all the technology expected and required in the twenty-first century. Our architectural design studio supports the decorating teams, offering atmospheric concept renderings and visuals, together with complex working drawings, schemes and specifications.
Eager to show that our archive designs are as relevant today as they were in the past, the company also produces furniture, fabrics, carpets and accessories that evoke the personalities and philosophies of our previous decorators and designers. These are available to view and to order from our showroom in the Pimlico Road.
