The Studio

Since its founding in 2019, the studio has developed a considered approach to residential interiors, creating spaces that balance character, comfort and practicality.

We believe a home should reflect the people who live in it. Our approach is driven by a genuine understanding of how clients live, ensuring each interior supports and enhances everyday life.

Drawing inspiration from architecture, nature and the surrounding countryside, our projects are often shaped by a careful balance of old and new. With Tetbury on our doorstep, we are fortunate to be surrounded by timeless design influences, from heritage craftsmanship to beautifully curated antiques and furnishings.

Whether working on a single room or an entire home, every project is carefully curated to create bespoke interiors that feel personal, enduring and connected to the property itself.

About Me

My love for interiors and property began long before it became my career. After my degree in Business, I studied for a Diploma in Interior Design whilst working for Farrow & Ball. Over the past 15 years, I have worked for design studios including London Design Group and March & White, and in the Design Centre at Chelsea Harbour.

These roles gave me experience across a wide range of projects, from show homes for property developers to private residential interiors and large-scale FF&E packages; developing a strong understanding of procurement, budgeting and project delivery.

In 2016, a move to Switzerland opened the door to working as a freelance designer. Freelance roles and building Helen Williamson Interiors has continued since returning to Wiltshire in 2019 where I live with my husband and two boys.

“Helen was recommended to us by a friend, who spoke very highly of her services — and they did not disappoint, from the start of the process to completion. Helen spent a lot of time understanding my thoughts and feelings about what I wanted to achieve in each area she worked on. She evolved the spaces collaboratively with me, bringing beautiful ideas, designs, colours, and textures together to create what is now three beautiful areas of our house. It took all the stress out of wondering what to put where. Her recycling and rejuvenation of items already in the house, along with her access to so many lovely furniture and fabric companies, was brilliant. I was so pleased that I left the design of the spaces in such good hands, as I could not have wished for a better outcome for our lovely new spaces, which now flow beautifully through the house.”
