Conran and Partners is recognized internationally for luxury hotels and resorts, branded residences and high-end residential development, and bespoke workplace and retail environments for leading international clients. The studio carries forward the design legacy of Sir Terence Conran and the belief that good design improves the quality of people’s lives.
The partnership ensures the continuity of the Conran and Partners design legacy for its employees and clients and provides the studio with an expanded global platform. Its five partners ― Tim Bowder-Ridger, Katy Clarke, Sebastian Conran, Simon Kincaid, and Tina Norden ― will continue as Principals and lead operations in the London and Hong Kong offices.
Speaking on behalf of the five partners, Bowder-Ridger said, “We‘ve been exploring how to take the practice further through a strategic partnership. We consistently found the same tension; growing bigger usually meant growing more corporate and losing the imagination of our boutique culture. DLR Group gave us a clear answer: more design resources, extended reach, and the platform to grow, without asking us to become something we’re not.”
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Hotel Designs.
