Nina Campbell is one of the world’s most respected and influential
interior designers. Her list of clients and design expertise is unparalleled.
Renowned for her contagious wit and brilliant sense of style, her designs
appeal to both young and old and sit well in both contemporary and traditional
interiors.
Her enthusiasm and interest in design and interiors was developed when,
at the age of nineteen, she went to work for John Fowler at the prestigious
Sybil Colefax & John Fowler. Shortly afterwards she set up her own
decorating business, where one of her first commissions was to design a castle
in Scotland and Annabel’s private members’ club, Berkeley Square, London, in
her unmistakably elegant and rich colour palette.
Further developing her business, Nina opened her interior design offices
and studio where she creates a successful fabric and wallpaper collection
internationally distributed by Osborne & Little. Her famous retail shop for
home accessories and gifts is at 9, Walton Street in London’s Knightsbridge,
and has remained a firm favorite for the last 30 years.
The interior design side of the business continues to flourish with
notable projects, both commercial and residential, throughout the world. In
most cases her clients are very private individuals who require a high level of
confidentiality and privacy. Nina Campbell feels very strongly that a house
should be personally tailored to each client and should reflect their own
particular needs and lifestyle. This is confirmed by her many returning
clients, throughout the generations and for houses in different parts of the
world.
Nina Campbell works with a large and trusted team of craftsmen in all
the decorative fields. She is equally happy working with clients existing furniture
and art or acquiring antiques and bespoke pieces to create a house ready to be
lived in.
Current projects include a large residence on mainland China, a private
house for a member of the Jordanian royal family in Amman, a town house in New
York and a country house hotel overlooking Cheltenham race course.
Nina was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from the University of Middlesex
in 2001, on top of the many other awards she has received, including the Royal
Oak Timeless Design Award (2003) and the American Fashion Award for ‘the woman
who has most influenced style internationally’. Nina is also a Trustee of the
Prince of Wales Drawing School and on the Fundraising Committee for Kids Co.
She is also the author of 5 books on interior design.
