Founded by Holly Hamlyn, HH Designs offers both an interior design service and bespoke artworks. Holly's aim is for people to truly connect with the spaces designed; for surroundings to feel organically functional and clients to feel inspired. With a human-centred approach and an internationally influenced style, she seamlessly delivers on this promise. Inspiration is everywhere we go - and Holly has travelled to many countries around the world in pursuit of it; incorporating every bit of brilliance found into work for clients. Holly's experience, both in London and abroad in South Africa and Zambia, is channelled into her diverse interior designs - from distinguished hotels and gourmet restaurants to high-end apartments and luxury homes - and excellent, considered service.
"With a rich background in art and design, Holly has spent nearly a decade creating interiors - from abstract oil paintings to 70-bedroom hotels, nothing is off-limits. Having lived both in the UK and South Africa, and travelled extensively abroad, Holly’s design influences are far-reaching. HH designs’ are fresh and fun but ultimately aim to reflect the client, ensuring that they feel happy and content in their surroundings. Each space is unique in its own right, decorated with purpose and designed for people first."

"Recently HH Designs collaborated with luxury lighting experts, Collier Webb to create a unique statement lighting piece. The Eternity Light has been designed with both beauty and practicality in mind. With two circular brass elements signifying unity and an adaptable structure that swivels and tilts, this lamp provides the user with a variety of looks.
The eternity ring to the top of the lamp conceals an LED strip, creating a halo-like glow. The adaptability of the structure allows the light to either glow in a general diffused area or when tilted will provide a more focused light, making it ideal as a modern-day desk lamp or sculptural piece placed on a console table.
The Eternity Light was bought to life at Collier Webb’s South Coast Foundry, using timeless, traditional materials at the hands of their experienced makers. Actively involved in local and international projects, we can plan large-scale experiences and everyday room schemes—down to the tiniest detail.
Utilising a unique blend of skills, HH Designs offers a full design service; from turnkey apartments, easy furniture packs to custom interior concepts and bespoke, one of a kind artworks. Pulling together and finishing off a space with unique paintings or charcoal drawings is a service we can provide without you having to spend a large sum of money or years collecting artworks. It can be the lasting impressing, the final flare or a subtle touch that makes your space complete."
