About

Zanna Westgate's early career working for an architectural practice gave her a clear understanding of the construction process which she feeds into her work as an interior designer. As Design Director at Chelsea Textiles, she developed the hand-embroidered, 17th century inspired collections that have made the company world-renowned. Zanna works on all elements of a project from the initial interior architectural detail and design, spacial planning, lighting, joinery and bathrooms. Her careful consideration of contemporary and antique furniture and artwork, as well as distinctive use of colour, ensures a timeless and elegant finish. From unique beachfront residences, luxury ski chalets, contemporary eco-homes to traditional country houses and London homes. Zanna recognises that designing interiors is about understanding the space and having the same innate feeling and vision as the owners. Her passion for design and collaborative approach have earned her a reputation for creating beautiful homes that reflect the individuality of her clients.
