DE S IGN CENTRE
THE STYLE SOLUTION
The Design Centre’s Personal Shopping Service thrives on being able to pinpoint just the right product for your design project. Put your sourcing in the hands of a dedicated team that can source everything from the perfect wallcovering to a special bespoke piece
In a fast-paced world packed with different options, decision making can become a complex task. Design is no different: with 120 showrooms at Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour to discover, sourcing products for the home can be overwhelming. Many homeowners are confident in their choices, but may need some guidance on narrowing down the options from someone who is familiar with the best in design, all available at one address. The Personal Shopping Service is here to help with finds and recommendations for design enthusiasts who don’t know where to begin. This friendly, knowledgeable service can unlock access
to thousands of products from 600 of the world’s leading brands,
from fabrics and wallcoverings to furniture,
lighting, carpets, tiles, trimmings, accessories, kitchens, bathrooms and more. With a detailed knowledge of the showrooms, the team can help you navigate what’s on offer, whether you’re looking for one special piece or something more extensive. Recent requests include products for a colourful new look for the cloakroom of a Georgian farmhouse, with the homeowners eventually choosing Arte’s bold ‘Sumatra’ wallcovering paired with a forest green cement basin from West One Bathrooms; and a replacement fabric for some well-loved French Empire dining chairs, where the clients selected ‘Paradisio Castille’ by Verel de Belval at Abbott + Boyd, which possessed the richness of colour and texture that was an important part of the brief. Bespoke commissions are also possible: the team
recently worked with a client to deliver a colourful custom- made rug in Himalayan wool and bamboo silk by Jennifer Manners for a waterfront apartment. Clients can be anywhere in the world, and the service
often comes into its own when homeowners need to furnish their UK properties from afar. The team recently helped a Middle Eastern client looking for some contemporary pieces for her London apartment; from one in-person meeting and a look around the showrooms, they were then able to fulfil the brief remotely via Zoom calls, sourcing furniture from brands such as Porada and Tollgård. Whatever the enquiry, great customer service and
a willingness to go the extra mile are universal. The service is complimentary, with no minimum spend, and customised to your sourcing needs. “We thrive on the challenge of fulfilling our clients’ needs,” says Gabrielle Grubanovich, who heads up the team. “Because every request needs a specially tailored approach, every day is different for us, and we love that variety. It’s incredibly rewarding to use our knowledge of the brands here to find a solution for a design dilemma, large or small.”
