In 2017, Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler relocated its London showrooms from Brook Street to Pimlico Road, in the middle of London’s decoration, design and antiques quarter. The move has been invigorating for the long-established interior decorating firm. The company remains proud of its unrivalled history, yet the new showrooms with their changing displays have a refreshingly up to date atmosphere, giving a flavour of what the highly experienced Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler designers can achieve for their clients today, while regular exhibitions add to the story of English decoration at its best.

The company’s current generation of designers has over 150 years of experience between them, and are as practised at creating 21st century interiors as they are at working on historic buildings. The majority of current commissions are private and residential, ranging from notable stately homes to modern city apartments, from ranches in the Americas to ski chalets in Europe and tropical beach houses in the Caribbean.

The client list (resolutely confidential) includes royalty and celebrities, businessmen and women, bohemians, and many in between. Each of the eight interior decorators has their own support team and work independently of one another. Clients choose the right designer for their commission, while safe in the knowledge that all work to the same exacting standards. Whether they prefer classic or cutting-edge, clients can be confident of great attention to detail and an interior that is deeply comfortable as well as being very beautiful. The firm’s signature of unobtrusive luxury can be relied upon in everything the decorators undertake.
