For over two decades, Guy Goodfellow’s intimate team of designers, architects, and draughtsmen have delivered beautiful, comfortable homes full of subtle connections. Our projects harness a respect for historical integrity, working sympathetically with the architectural heritage of a building, whilst imbuing a contemporary relevance and underplayed elegance. Antiques, custom made pieces and found objects are woven into the story of every room to create a richly layered and detailed interior.
The practice has many international accolades, including being a member of the House & Garden Top 100 since its inception, and commissions include a broad spectrum of deeply personal individual residences across the globe. Guy, Steven, and the team’s wonderfully creative approach is rooted in a passionate interest in all elements of a project ‘not just the interior, but everything starting with the view from the main gate, the gate itself, the drive, the landscape; taking in absolutely everything’ This complete vision for the whole allows their work to tell an all-encompassing story with no details spared.

"Led by Guy Goodfellow, the practice combines vivid imagination, precise historical knowledge, and rigorous attention to detail; constructing a complete and settled look full of subtle connections. Our work speaks to each client’s personality and interests, encouraging their participation and self-expression to create something that feels naturally evolved over time. Guy actively invites clients to view the process as putting together a personal collection that layers periods and places, ‘I like to use the best of every decade, every decade has something uniquely special. It’s the mix and the blend.’ These layers create tension between materials and textures that concoct an uncontrived and timeless interior not harnessed to a single period or style. Nothing in our designs is expected or prescriptive and, in the words of a great longstanding client – ‘their work is never, ever predictable’. The practice has recently welcomed Steven Rodel as its Creative Director; Steven brings over a decade of experience in exceptional residential design, having worked internationally over a diverse portfolio of private projects."
