Head to Design Centre Chelsea Harbour this month to discover the latest interior design launches from fabrics and wallcoverings to furniture and accessories

With over 135 showrooms to explore, Focus 25 on Design brings together an outstanding line-up of global brands and talented makers alongside a programme of talks, tours and masterclasses.

This year, 35 pop-up house guests in the Design Avenue include Amy Kent Rugs, Box Galleries, Coral + Hive, Jab, Rapture & Wright, Timney Fowler and Warwick. Although Focus 25 finishes on 19 September, the house guests will remain at DCCH until 16 October.

As always there is an excellent line up of fun and informative talks to enjoy. I am taking part in three events so I hope to see you there: On Monday 15 September at 2pm in the Crucial Trading showroom you can meet the delightful Ben Foster and Paul Longman when I chat to them about their beautifully renovated Georgian manor house in Cumbria; On Tuesday 16 at 12.30 join me at London Basin Company where I will be in conversation with interior designer Sophie Garland regarding the power of colour, texture and pattern in design; Also on the 16 September at 2pm, its time for the BIID panel discussion at the Interdesign showroom where I join three interior designers as they discuss top tips and best techniques on how to secure a project, from first enquiry to final invoice.

Focus 25 on Design runs from 15 to 19 September entry is free, but you are asked to register in advance
