FOCUS/21 Highlights

That’s a wrap: Focus 21. As this year’s much anticipated edition of Focus has been and gone, we reflect on an exciting and inspirational week.

2020 and much of 2021 have been a period of uncertainty so it was truly refreshing to welcome the design community back though the doors of our Design Centre Chelsea Harbour showroom again. We loved seeing old friends and great clients again as we had so dearly missed them. A big thank you goes out to the team at DCCH whose support and hard work is unwavering and really appreciated.

For those that were not able to make it to London, we sincerely hope to meet you again soon. In the meantime, please let us know if you would like a physical catalogue of new collections.

Chaired by Samantha Scott-Jeffries (Editor of The English Home), Paolo joined Henriette Von Stockhausen (founder VSP Interiors), Nicole Salvesen (co-founder of Salvesen Graham) and Juliette Wright (director of Stephenson Wright) to debate whether now is the time to escape to the country, or whether the city will sustain the new found boundaries of living and working.
