Newsletter – September 2025

A Note from Us

September marked the start of a new season and with it, a fresh wave of inspiration. As the pace shifts from summer into fall, we’ve been diving into new design ideas, exploring palettes and textures that reflect the richness of the months ahead.

It’s an exciting time in the studio as we shape upcoming projects and prepare for the next events in our calendar. From thought-provoking conversations to creative collaborations, this season is already promising to be one of growth, connection, and discovery.

We look forward to sharing more with you in the weeks to come, and to welcoming you into the many moments of inspiration that fall always brings!

Different by Design: Craftsmanship, Collaboration, and Brand Individuality

Ealier in September, Taylor Howes joined a special session at the Design Centre London, part of an international design tour curated by Pramiti Madhavji, former editor-in-chief of Elle Decor India. The session, Different by Design, explored what makes interiors truly stand out: craftsmanship, individuality, and collaboration.

Karen Howes, founder of Taylor Howes, joined industry leaders to discuss how exceptional projects begin with a story, whether it’s the client’s lifestyle, passions, or the building’s heritage, and how thoughtful design creates spaces that are both personal and timeless.

The conversation highlighted the importance of handcrafted, bespoke pieces and close relationships with artisans, ensuring every detail reflects the client’s values while adding warmth, texture, and character.

Finally, the session emphasized that Taylor Howes’ identity is rooted in its ethos, passion, honesty, and kindness, allowing the studio to deliver interiors that are distinctive, meaningful, and memorable.

Women in Business Breakfast: Women Leading with Wealth

We kicked off our fall Women in Business Breakfast series with an inspiring morning joined by the brilliant Jasmine Birtles. A financial expert, broadcaster, journalist, and founder of MoneyMagpie, Jasmine is known for making money matters approachable and actionable.

Her talk, “Women Leading with Wealth,” sparked lively discussion on how to invest, what to do with our money, and most importantly, why women must take ownership of their financial future. As Jasmine reminded us, once women start investing, they often outperform men.

The morning left us all with a renewed sense of empowerment: investing is not just about growing wealth, it’s about taking control, building confidence, and shaping the future on our own terms.

Discovering inspiration at the Design Centre

This month, our team spent time at the Design Centre, exploring the latest collections and uncovering unique craftsmanship from around the world. From innovative techniques to rare materials and bespoke finishes, the Design Centre remains a constant source of inspiration for our work.

Visiting new and established suppliers allows us to stay at the forefront of design, while also ensuring that each project we deliver is infused with originality and detail. These encounters not only spark fresh ideas but also open doors to collaborations that bring our clients something truly special.
