Following the previous two seasons’ success, Interior Design Masters is back for its third season. Premiering on BBC2, the series shows ten budding interior designers competing against one another, to win a life-changing commercial contract with a prestigious hotel.

We are thrilled to announce our new collaboration with the iconic London-based brand, Tobias & The Angel. This exciting collection is all about reinventing the rich archive of hand-carved wood blocks that the brand’s founder, Angel Hughes, salvaged from a languishing company when she founded her London-based business in 1986. Each of the blocks that she rescued were individually painted using traditional techniques and for this collection we have put together two of these striking prints in a variety of colours.
Playing it “safe” was often my fall-back position. I’d see homes in pictures and magazines but when it came to our own house would often worry that if I went for a certain style or colour, I might fall out of love with it. What we ended up with was a very bland space where things were fine, but the result didn’t really reflect us. So, over the last couple of years, we’ve worked to add our style and character to our home so that whenever I walk into a room it makes me smile.
So, here are a couple things that helped us to add character to our home:

Today, we're excited to introduce our most sustainable collaboration to date; the Kate Watson-Smyth collection. With the impact of climate change becoming clearer, sustainable design solutions which minimize negative environmental impacts, while still delivering beautiful and functional spaces, have a vital role to play in building a brighter, greener future for generations to come.
Award-winning interiors design journalist Kate Watson-Smyth thinks so too. Best known for her acclaimed blog, Mad About The House, Kate has a long history of advocating for environmentally-friendly design and practices. This shared passion didn't go unnoticed and in 2019 Love Your Home began working with Kate, to embark on one of our most ambitious projects yet: to create a truly sustainable furniture range - putting ecological and durable design at its heart - without compromising on beauty.
We all love the feeling of arriving to a sumptuously luxurious boutique hotel bedroom; crisp sheets, fluffy robes and perfectly arranged pillows piled high. There's something so indulgent about a hotel stay, with all the comforts of home and yet so much extra.
Some of our favorites we're always inspired by are The Pig and, of course, Soho House. For many of us however, an exciting staycation or hotel break hasn't been an option. If you're seeking the style and comfort from your missed getaway this year, consider transforming your own bedroom into a boutique hotel style escape, with these refreshing changes.
You’ll probably know by now that all things velvet make for a wonderfully on-trend and seriously luxurious home.

So, whether you’re looking to invest in a new kid mohair velvet sofa in any one of our beautiful colourways or are ready to reupholster an existing piece that needs a little love, let’s look at the unique and exciting properties of 100% kid mohair velvet.

Now that many of us have worked from home, it's become clear how important it is to create a study space that works practically for the everyday, while also being a beautiful part of the rest of our home. If you're looking for inspiration on how to work from home, just take a look at the brilliant transformation Vivienne Cutler has undertaken, swapping her unloved snug for an all important home study. Vivienne, who shares the entire renovation of her Victorian Cottage on her Instagram, talks to us about the steps she's taken creating this room.
