Another Brand has a unique structure that connects designer and manufacturer utilising the strength and capabilities of both partners to create new and innovative products under the Creative Direction of Studio Theo Williams. Products are rooted in the DNA of Another Brand, and encompass diverse categories. Their furniture range – Cubo – is designed to adapt to any room, business or domestic, and is easily modified by the manufacturer to suit the client’s needs. Theo Williams progressed from designing products for brands like Alessi, to lead design and creative roles with Habitat and John Lewis.

Both Fien Muller and Hannes Van Severen are artists, so it’s no surprise that their collection sits somewhere between design and art. It’s obviously ‘furniture’ but the emphasis is not completely about function and suggests different ways of living and using space. The Muller Van Severen collection invites participation – the chopping boards and trivets are wall sculptures that adapt to a functional role and change in appearance with use; the double facing seat only achieves its potential with use – two people engaging and perhaps forming new ideas. The process of ‘designing’ appears to be more like a conversation and an evolution of ideas, with one finished product inspiring the next – which makes the collection work so well as a whole.

Jordan Cluroe and Russell Whitehead are an interior design duo with big aspirations to change the face of interiors and push the boundaries of how we live in our homes. Design columnists and regular contributors to national press they are #makinglivinglovely one project at a time.

“Our shared love of design was clear from the start. We met as actors and when we joined forces our lives took a different direction. We bought our first home together, postcode ending 2LG and our friends came up with a business name that stuck. Gradually, design began to take over our lives and now we live and breathe it, believing that good design can change your life.”

Fiona Barratt Interiors was formed in 2006 and is now a successful interior design studio, working on luxury residential and commercial projects in the UK and overseas. Fiona says: “My philosophy behind creating fluid and elegant spaces is born of understanding the aspirations of the client, the relevance of location and through maximising the potential of existing elements of the space. I develop these with imagination and vision. The result is an interior that tells a story in relation to the four walls in which it exists, and most importantly an interior that reflects the client’s individuality… a successful interior should enhance not dictate the way you live.”
