We have had the absolute pleasure to incorporate these favourite design collaborations into our recent projects…

Over the many years, collaborations between fashion, artists, artisans, interior designers, furniture designers and others in creative industries have become more and more prominent.

For this week’s Friday Favourites, I wanted to bring together a few of these collaborations that came to mind when considering my favourites within the interior design industry- I hope you enjoy!

India Mahdavi x Pierre Frey fabrics

Best friend chair design collaborations
The Best Friends Chair

India Mahdavi is a French furniture designer and architect that has designed iconic pieces that feature in beautiful spaces all over the world. Her unique and instantly recognisable style can be described as contemporary minimalist and features bold block colours. India has collaborated with French textile company Pierre Frey on the True Velvet Collection.

The velvet collection features bold geometrics and deep, bright block colours that will illuminate any interior.

Ardmore Ceramics x Cole and Son Wallpaper

In 1997, Cole and Son announced an exciting collaboration with art company, Ardmore Ceramics.

Both of these brands have African roots, so as you can imagine, the wallpaper collection is vibrant, illustrated and iconic and steeped in African culture. This collaboration has also been acclaimed with numerous rewards, and referred to by Christie’s auction house as “modern-day collectibles”

Kelly Wearstler x Visual Comfort

In 2015, Kelly Wearstler, a very talented designer, released her first lighting collection, in collaboration with Visual Comfort.

Four years later, the collection still remains current and exciting and are still very popular to this day, amongst architects, interior designers and their clients of course and it’s not hard to see why!

Kelly is very talented in bringing her chic and exclusive style to the lighting collections that she has designed.

I hope that you enjoyed this week’s Friday Favourites… Did you have a design collaboration in mind that I haven’t mentioned here? I would love to hear it, drop a comment below and let’s chat.
Best, Marylou x

Stephanie Nadel

Assosciate Interior Architect

What makes Stephanie Nadel’s success story so remarkable is that she has come so far, so fast.
Stephanie, the Associate Interior Architect at Marylou Sobel Interior Design, has gained more experience, and handled more responsibilities in the past ten years than many other design professionals take on in their careers.

Stephanie, a multi-talented full service professional, carried out a wide variety of commercial and residential design tasks while she was based in London. She worked for three prominent interior design firms, as well as on her own, and served clients around the world.

In the process, she helped complete within 12 weeks the design and installation of a penthouse suite on The World, the luxury residential yacht that circumnavigates the globe. Prior to this Stephanie lead the full refurbishment of a lavish, Grade II listed, five bedroom home in the Hampstead Garden suburbs in London.

During her five years in London, she worked with Gensler, the world’s largest collaborative design, planning and consulting firm; MoreySmith, a leading design and architecture studio, and Fiona Barratt Interiors, an award-winning luxury design firm.

Assisting with projects for those firms, launching her own residential practice, and interacting with vendors worldwide provided her with project management, creative problem solving, sourcing, technical and other skills that benefit her clients today.

Stephanie earned her Bachelor of Interior Architecture degree at the University of New South Wales.

While she is adept in several aspects of design, she’s particularly interested in the challenge of refurbishing existing spaces. “I enjoy the problem solving that’s involved with existing buildings,” she says. “Although it is always a privilege to design alongside a team to create new and innovative structures, I love creating meaningful design from older properties and taking inspiration from heritage details.”
