Sophie Ashby is the creative director of London based interior design studio. She has a BA in History of Art (Hons) at Leeds University, she is going on to study Interior Design at Parsons, The New School in Manhattan, New York. Having worked on various projects, she developed strong architectural and design sensibility through years. She aims to generate a unique identity for the places she works on. Her style and goal are described on her website as this; “Ashby’s aim is to bring authenticity to each project, not only in the selection of furniture, lighting and art but in its use of a natural palette of materials and textures. Unswayed by the passing dictates of fashion, Ashby draws on her love of antiques, colour, contemporary ‘world art’, modernist furniture, photography and her latest discoveries to deliver an eclectic richness to each interior.” She believes that humour and a love of objects with an explicit narrative result in a carefully balanced body of work that create cohesive spaces with a sense of honesty. Ashby’s perspective for design and decoration is unified with art and that’s what makes her projects a feast for the eyes. Scroll down and see them by yourself.
