Studio Moren has reimagined three adjoining Georgian townhouses to create the 43-key Bertrand’s Townhouse for SAV Group, a boutique hotel that balances careful restoration with refined contemporary design.⁠
⁠
Inspired by Bloomsbury’s rich literary and intellectual heritage, the interiors layer texture, craft and warm tonal palettes to create an atmosphere of considered domesticity rather than overt theme. ⁠
⁠
As David Harte, Partner and Head of Interior Design at Studio Moren, explains: “The design… is grounded in an understanding of the building’s architecture and its original townhouse proportions.”⁠
⁠
With discreet architectural interventions, energy-efficient technologies and deep respect for the Georgian fabric, Bertrand’s Townhouse offers a calm, characterful retreat in the heart of London.⁠

📣 We are delighted to share that Six Senses London opened their doors yesterday, marking the brand’s first UK destination! 📣

Designed by AvroKO in collaboration with EPR Architects, the hotel blends contemporary interiors with classical and Art Deco references, anchored by a dramatic retained iron staircase inspired by La Scala.⁠
⁠
With a team of over 300 hospitality professionals, the opening signals a major new chapter for Queensway and urban luxury hospitality.⁠

Working with Six Senses team, we`ve had the pleasure of coving this brand new, industry leading, project in Commercial Interiors UK`s 2026 Directory - link in our bio!

Jim Biddulph reports from this year’s Surface Design Show and one theme stood out above all others: circularity.⁠
⁠
From eggshell and oyster-shell composites to denim boards, plastic-note panels and cork reimagined at architectural scale, the aisles at the Islington Business Design Centre revealed a material culture shifting decisively towards reuse, regeneration and recovery.⁠
⁠
As Jim explores, circular production is no longer a sidebar to innovation, it is shaping the aesthetic, technical and ethical direction of surface design.⁠

Plans have been approved by Dacorum Borough Council for a carefully designed programme of improvements to the Grade II-listed country house hotel, set within 35 acres of historic parkland on the edge of the Chilterns National Landscape.⁠
⁠
Designed by Studio Moren, the scheme replaces temporary structures with permanent, high-quality buildings, introduces sensitively designed new guest accommodation and enhances events and leisure facilities, all while safeguarding the manor’s architectural and landscape significance.⁠
⁠
As Herbert Lui, Partner at Studio Moren, explains:⁠
⁠
“Our ambition from the outset has been to work with that inheritance rather than compete with it.”⁠
