Hillarys room design challenge by interior designer Sophie Robinson
“If you are a lover of high impact interiors, then you need to look at colour schemes that add drama. By clashing contrasting colours you quickly create that high-energy appeal that I really love.”
Sophie Robinson, interior stylist, writer and TV presenter, cleverly combines fabrics from our new collection of curtains and Roman blinds to design an eclectic interior in her unique Colour Clash style.
Sophie Robinson’s signature style certainly packs a punch. Renowned for her colourful interiors, quirky vintage knick-knacks and upcycled treasures, Sophie has carved a niche in creating colourful, playful interiors that are both inspirational and accessible.
Having toyed with woodwork, jewellery, ceramics, metalwork and plastics during her student years, Sophie is understandably passionate about the design process and the importance of experimenting with colour, form and function.
We gave Sophie free rein to choose any fabrics from our sensational new collection of curtains and Roman blinds. True to form, Sophie chose to combine a flirty floral with an edgy geometric to create a fabulously flamboyant interior.
Sophie’s fabric choices
At the window, Sophie was instantly drawn to the vibrant watercolour florals of Caprice Paradise for her Roman blind, which she teamed with strong geometric Eclipse Denim curtains. The finished look is wonderfully original, eclectic and totally unexpected.

Sophie feels that windows can often be an undervalued design opportunity. She says: ‘Windows are a major architectural feature in a room and if you have great windows you are duty bound to frame them perfectly. Made-to-measure makes sure this is done to the best effect.’
