What is your favourite Dernier & Hamlyn lighting project?
Aurora Borealis interior with Winch Design. Within the project there are various lighting elements, and the large pendant in the saloon is a classic example of Dernier & Hamlyn’s traditional skills combined with modern technology and contemporary design. It represents the perfect showcase for our capabilities, working from a challenging brief and installation allied to our metal-working skills, with sumptuous materials and expert finishing.

What is your favourite place?
Outdoors, but not a beach. Somewhere with stunning history and scenery. If it’s with the company of family and my two children, even better. In terms of a particular place, I find it too hard to pin down just one place. I like to keep exploring new spaces, and maybe my favourite place is out there somewhere, waiting to be found.
