traditional decorating techniques, values and aesthetics
with modern technology and service.

His unique interiors bristle with moody colour, sensual texture and carefully
curated antiques. But Adam Bray is also down to earth, delivering ‘the most
comfortable house possible and dealing with the practicalities of life’. Clients
get the full benefit of his 25 years in antiques, plus a deep understanding of
specialist materials, a highly attuned colour sense and an intelligent approach.
Background
After leaving school at 16, Adam worked for antiques dealers in London and New
York, then opened his own shop in Notting Hill. He says that he became interested in
interior design through his clients, and today his creative studio focuses on private
homes. Adam has created paint colours for Papers and Paints and Plain English and
has his own range of furniture, lighting and fabrics.
Projects
Adam is working on a house in Chester Square SW1, a Nash cottage in Regent’s
Park, a family estate in East Sussex and a pub in east London. Other projects
include custom-coloured cashmere blankets with a Welsh knitwear factory.
Industry recommendation
‘Adam looks for unusual furniture and textiles, whether tribal or silk damask,
creating unpretentious spaces with a twist. His sense of humour shines through
his work,’ says textiles designer Christine Van Der Hurd.
