Blog

In the blogs below, Rosie and Charlotte regularly post and discuss various topics that inspire and educate our readers about the life of Interior Design. There are many resources we hope you find useful, especially if you are decorating one or two rooms alone, but would like some seasoned help, each week we focus on something we feel pertinent for the season or upcoming trends. April Hamilton’s articles give our followers an insight into to the industry, the trends that come and go and how certain changes and additions will benefit different lifestyles. We also go in depth about our projects, suppliers and what the world of interior design and being a designer is really like- especially here at April Hamilton. We love what we do and know how emotive interior design is; it makes all the difference to our everyday wellbeing, so please share any blogs you feel could be useful to family and friends. Perhaps now is a perfect time, to make a coffee and read the latest blog.
