Boasting a fascinating heritage, it was founded by William Henry Bennett in 1904, and still remains in the Bennett family hands to this day! Come and see the collections!

Taste of Design May 2023
Taste of Design is provided by a select number of interiors brands, who bring their exclusive roadshow to an interesting location near to you. Each year, different areas of the country are visited, and the team is constantly seeking out new venues and locations, as well as sometimes re-visiting old favourites. The stunning locations for this year were Allerton Castle in Harrogate, Arley Hall & Gardens in Cheshire, Hatfield House in Hertfordshire and Hampton Court Palace.
The Design Archives participated for the first time this year and had a wonderful time meeting new customers and catching up with those that we know. For those that came, thank you for visiting us! This road show is a special opportunity for us to meet our customers and personally show them our textile and wallpaper collections, the Taste of Design event is totally free for interior design professionals and includes a complimentary lunch. We hope to see you next year at Taste of Design! Click here to see The Design Archives collections.

London Design Week at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour
In March 2023, The Design Archives were House Guests for the first time at the Chelsea Harbour Design Centre during London Design Week. We showed alongside 30 high profile interior brands, including Rose Uniacke, Warwick and Minoli. Sharon and the team thoroughly enjoyed the week at Design Avenue meeting new and old customers. Due to the success of the show we will be back, and look forward to Design Week in March 2024!

Scottish Interiors Showcase
The Scottish Interior Showcase saw interior designers and retail visitors descend on the McDonald Inchyra Hotel where it was a real pleasure to meet up with clients and colleagues from Scotland and the North of England. As one of our favourite shows, it provides the perfect opportunity to connect with customers who don’t feel the need to always head South for the shows.
Paris Deco Off
Paris Deco Off was back on form this year, after a shaky couple of Covid years, and we were fortunate to kick off 2023 by exhibiting at the Hotel Artus in St-Germain-du-Pres. We were delighted to meet so many interior designers and clients from both Europe and the USA, who have put this industry date back on the map.
Todd Knights joins Showroom
Bespoke curtain pole and finial makers Todd Knights have joined forces with us to display their beautiful poles and decorative finishes. For interior designers looking for a one-stop shop for window dressings we can now offer an extensive choice of styles, from traditional painted or lacquered poles, to contemporary glass and chrome designs.
New Showroom Opening at Worlds End Studios
We were thrilled when a larger and more spacious showroom became available in the main courtyard of Worlds End Studios at the end of the year, offering a more expansive space to display our full range for clients and retail visitors. You will find us just before the main reception on the right hand side. We are open Monday to Friday 9am – 5pm.
