18 December marked the official opening of Guinevere London at Harbour Yard, Chelsea Harbour. The walls had been painted, the carpets laid and the electrics finished. After an intense day of styling with the help of Dean Robinson the previous day, we were ready to receive.

A loyal client with impeccable taste came by in the afternoon and left with several pieces for her new house. That evening we marked the opening with drinks for our neighbours on the third floor of the North East Corridor at Harbour Yard — a select crew indeed.

Among the guests were Rawlings & George PR, our immediate neighbours and friends with whom we have worked many times over the years. From the same office came Fiona Milne (Source, the personal shopping service at the Design Centre) and Sarah Fox Interiors.

One door further along the corridor are the offices of Alidad Ltd. Alidad came, as did Paul Goulet and the whole team, including Sama and Monika. English sparkling wine and canapés were served.

Guinevere London had officially begun.
