Newsletter – November 2025

A Note from Us

As we step into the season of gifting, gathering, and celebration, the studio is filled with a renewed sense of warmth and inspiration. This time of year always invites reflection on the spaces we create, the stories we help shape, and the homes that bring people together.

From festive preparations to the anticipation of a fresh new year, we’re reminded of the importance of thoughtful design that enriches the moments shared with family and friends.

As we look ahead to the final weeks of the year, we’re putting the finishing touches on exciting projects, preparing new announcements, and embracing the energy that this joyful season brings!

Latest project reveal: introducing Knightsbridge Boutique Project

We are delighted to announce the completion of our newest project in Knightsbridge, a refined, three-storey townhouse where delicate romanticism meets curated modernity.

Drawing inspiration from the property’s heritage, our team crafted a design narrative that blends classical references with contemporary craftsmanship. Curved forms, bespoke joinery, and sculptural lighting create a gentle flow throughout, while thoughtful textures and warm tones bring a sense of intimacy to each space.

Subtle details, such as geometric bespoke marble flooring, refined arched doorways, and a meticulously crafted marble helical staircase, enhance the home’s character while maintaining a cohesive, contemporary elegance.

As with all Taylor Howes projects, Knightsbridge boutique was guided by our commitment to collaboration, meticulous detailing, and a seamless client journey.

As we step into the new year, we’ve been quietly shaping the next chapter of Kaleidoscope, our annual exploration of the trends influencing the future of interiors.

2026 signals a subtle but significant shift: a move toward spaces that feel more intentional, more sensory, and more deeply connected to how we live.

Our full report will unveil the themes, materials and sensibilities we believe will define the year ahead, a refined interpretation of modern luxury through the Taylor Howes lens.

Stay tuned! Kaleidoscope 2026 is coming soon!

Autumn Budget insights: a recap of our November roundtable

Earlier in November, we hosted political commentator Sam Freedman for an exclusive roundtable in our studio, offering his insights on the evolving landscape ahead of the 2025 Autumn Budget.

Sam shared a clear view of the challenges and uncertainties facing the government, and how decisions are being carefully balanced to address economic pressures.

– Our key takeaways: The discussion highlighted the complexity of planning in uncertain times and the careful consideration needed across policy areas.

– Looking ahead: Events like this give us valuable perspective on the wider environment, helping us anticipate change and guide our clients with confidence.

We look forward to hosting more thought-leadership conversations in the year ahead!
