Bathrooms - no longer the room to hide away


Leading Japanese bathroom manufacturer" Toto" has recently launched in Europe.

When it comes to their bathroom Icon Interior's clients want to be inspired and see something exclusive, with Toto we can achieve just that.

Our clients see the bathroom no longer as simply a ‘functional’ space in which to cleanse – it is now considered one of their most essential rooms in the home. They need a place to escape from their hectic lifestyles, and the ‘new’ style of bathroom offers a space to relax and refresh in. Bathroom products have transformed into sculptures, and with the advances in manufacturing, materials and technology almost anything is possible.

Good design improves quality of life, and having it in every aspect of the home is certainly becoming more sought after.

"Bespoke" a fashionable term

At Icon Interiors we strive to offer our clients a one-of-a-kind interior finish to their project. One way that we achieve this is by encouraging them to venture down the "bespoke" route.



Take the leap and you will have the joy of owning a piece uniquely made to suit your tastes and space. The commissioning process itself can be quite rewarding if not addictive. Jonathon Baring combines contemporary design with traditional craft-based methods. All pieces, materials and colours are tailored to the clients' requirements.

There are no longer any boundaries when using glass




At Icon Interiors we are being asked more and more for bespoke glass products, be it in bathrooms, kitchens or the complete side of a house.

Firman Glass offers a unique product. It takes a plain sheet of glass and shapes it, curves it and toughens it, making anything from a simple toughened glass door to a major piece of structural glasswork.

Firmans Glass despite its small size, offers all the skills and expertise needed for glass processing and installation.

The limits on glass sizes are being pushed, and its only right that one of the companies responsible can do it in-house.

Beds don't have to be boring








At Icon Interiors we pride ourselves on offering only the best to our clients, so that said it goes without saying that our first step when sourcing a bed is Savoir Beds.

Savoir Beds go back to 1905 when the No 2 bed became known as ‘The Savoy’. The company was bought by the Savoy Hotel in the 1930’s and remained within the group until 1997 when it regained it's independence. Savoir beds are still to be found in the worlds premier hotels today.

Made to measure: the worlds most perfect sleeping system. A Savoir Bed can be made to any size or shape. It can stand alone, be upholstered, have a headboard or the sprung base can be made to fit into an existing frame – a four poster perhaps, a bateau lit, or a more contemporary design. When you order your bed your name goes on it to ensure all your personal requirements are built in to give you exactly the right combination of size, shape, support and comfort.

Beautiful Wallcoverings by Stereo






Walls covered in silk are an unashamed luxury.

The character of hand spun, hand woven wild silk creates a look that distinguishes silk wallcoverings from any other.

For a recent client who has a Mews property in fashinonable Marylebone, Icon Interiors introduced them to Stereo Wallcoverings from their beautiful silk range of wallpapers.
We paired the Navy blue silk with black furniture for a contempory bedroom, and in the elegant sitting room we used the Taupe with sumptious Santos Rosewood furniture.

Product Feature - Linley


We like to use Linley funiture for high end residential interiors,for its exquisite quality and finish.At Icon Interiors, we particularly like the elegant and unique Helix design, because of its simplicity and indviduality.

Although buying a Linley product may seem expensive today it is the antique of the future, to be handed down through the generations.

Dare to Dream



We were invited to design the Dare to Dream Ball for the St James’s Place Charitable Foundation, which raises much needed funds for charities in the UK and overseas. Icon designed the Dare to Dream theme and galvanized a fantastic team of people to make this dream come true. The St James’s Place Partnership and guests raised over 500,000 pounds for the Foundation. See the website www.icon-interiors.co.uk for more information.

Beautiful Kitchens


As well as working with high end contemporary kitchen companies, such as Bulthaup and Alternative Plan, we can also offer a bespoke kitchen design service. These kitchens particularly appeal to clients looking for a hand made product, using all of the skills of traditional English cabinet-making.

These beautiful painted kitchens evoke a sense of understated style, with feeling of permanence and timelessness. They can be accessorized with contemporary fittings and will work with most interior schemes and architecture
