Studio Ashby

Studio Ashby, led by its creative director Sophie Ashby, specializes in creating spaces with a unique identity. The studio aims to bring authenticity to each project through the selection of furniture, lighting, and art, as well as the use of a natural palette of materials and textures. Unswayed by passing fashion trends, Ashby draws on her love of antiques, color, contemporary 'world art', modernist furniture, photography, and her latest discoveries to deliver an eclectic richness to each interior. The studio's relationships with artisans and craftsmen, extensive resources, and continual foraging play an integral role in developing each project. Sophie Ashby's design vocabulary was broadened through a BA in History of Art (Hons) at Leeds University and studying interior design at Parsons, The New School in Manhattan, New York. Her strong architectural and design sensibility developed over the following years with sound mentorship and a personal curiosity for "beautiful things".
