THE LITTLE BLACKBOOK

Every project has its own unique list of suppliers and craftspeople. Part of making it special is finding the right mix

FURNITURE

I love Rose Uniacke on Pimlico Road – I admire her projects as much as I like the store. I always include one or two of her designs in my interiors. roseuniacke.com

CONCEPT STORE

Kokon To Zai in Notting Hill is a longtime favourite of mine. Its name means ‘East meets West’ in Japanese. I always find interesting objects to add that finishing touch to my interiors, and it sells interesting clothes, too. kokontozai.shop

ART AND FASHION

When I’m in London, I always enjoy paying a visit to Blue Mountain School [formerly Hostem] in Shoreditch. It curates a great mix of fashion, design and art, and has a small but beautiful restaurant called Mãos. I like to buy things for myself here, be it clothing or accessories. bluemountain.school

CRAFT

Gallery Fumi is my favourite place for discovering unique designs. I’m especially fond of textile artist Rowan Mersh’s work.

His wall pieces are hand-assembled from thousands of components, using materials such as shells and wooden sticks. galleryfumi.com
