We champion British design and showcase upcoming designers. We want to be able to inspire people to re-create beautiful interiors without breaking the bank.
RB : What in your work are you most proud of? AT : I am extremely proud of plucking up the courage to produce an online magazine. Something in which we are breaking barriers here in the UK. We took a risk and went for it and the results have been fantastic. I am looking forward to the future.

Photographed by Holly Becker RB : What’s inspiring you now? AT : I am constantly inspired by meeting new people and discovering their talents. I have met some fabulous people lately off and online. I believe there is a creative soul in each and everyone of us. RB : How would you describe your own home décor? AT : Modern, cool with an urban edge to it. Many expect my home to be super girly but far from it. Maybe because I have an engineering husband. I have had to compromise 🙂 RB : What do you love most about your home and why? AT : I love the warm atmosphere I have at home. There is nothing better than relaxing on my comfy sofa with dimmed lights and candles listening to music. RB : What is the one thing in your home that everyone always comments on? AT : My photos, my Marilyn posters and my lighting. People tend to always relax at my place.
