Best BEST ACCESSORY - winner: Straw Marquetry matchbox sleeves by K&H Design
The design of the matchbox sleeves from interior design studio K&H’s No Straight Lines collection takes inspiration from the studio’s flatweave stair runners.
‘Seemingly small details can make a huge difference to how refined our homes look – and these matchbox sleeves turn a normal household item into a luxury,’ says Hugh Metcalf.

BEST BEST ACCESSORIES COLLECTION - winner: Heal’s x L.F.Markey Collection

The collection features rugs, cushions, linen and tableware, all with Louise’s signature style. ‘We were completely taken by the graphic motifs and confident palette of these pieces,’ says Sarah Spiteri.

BEST TABLEWARE - winner: Hampton Collection by The White Company
The White Company worked with a family-run factory outside of Lisbon for its Hampton collection, with each piece handmade for an artisanal
feel that’s still suited for everyday use.
‘The handcrafted nature of each piece lends them tactility that makes them feel far more expensive than they are,’ says Pip Rich.
