London 2012

I am genuinely looking forward to The Olympics and can feel the excitement building in London. I know it will be busy and not so easy to travel around, but what an amazing showcase for our country. I have always loved the buzz in London and I hope the next few weeks will show just what a great place we live and work in!

Decorex International

I am excited to see some of the new furniture collection we are designing for Decorex taking shape. This is our first time showing there and I am looking forward to it - a great showcase for our new ranges.

Decorex International runs from Sunday 23rd to Wednesday 26th September in the grounds of the Royal Hospital Chelsea, London SW3.

Louise Bradley in the press...

Louise's Jagged Edge Bronze Bowl was featured in the Financial Times: How to Spend It 'Eclectibles' page on Saturday! From the new collection of Louise Bradley accessories, this bowl retails at £85.00 and is available  from our Kimbolton Court and Walton Street showrooms.

The Luxon Bureau

The Luxon Bureau is a beautiful yet eminently practical piece of furniture. Finished in luxurious shagreen and a polished wood veneer, it is available in a number of colours to suit any living space.

Please go online to www.louisebradley.co.uk to view the Luxon Bureau, or visit our Kimbolton Court showroom to see the extensive Louise Bradley furniture collection!

Masterpiece London

I am looking forward to popping out of the showroom this week to visit Masterpiece London, a wonderful fair in the grounds of Chelsea Hospital specialising in art, antiques and design of the highest calibre. I have never been before and cannot wait to view some of the exhibits, and learn from the world’s leading luminaries in the fields on show.

As it is supposed to be summer and yet the weather in the UK seems determined to stay wet and windy, we thought we would tease you with this very chic pool area from a project we have just completed somewhere rather warmer than here... Enjoy!

Ballgowns at the V&A

If this unseasonal rain continues until the coming weekend I will be making my way to the Fashion Gallery at the V&A, which is currently playing host to an exhibition of some 80 ballgowns chosen to show the development of formal wear from debutante balls to celebrity events. Designers represented include some of my favourites - Alexander McQueen, Erdem and Stella McCartney - and there are royal gowns on display including Princess Diana's 'Elvis Dress'. It should be a great showcase of British design talent!
