Ian Cummings, Designer

I am an experienced design consultant and decorator based in Brighton, England.

Currently often in Belgium, Germany and working throughout Europe and the United States, I am best known for the restoration and recreation of eighteenth and early nineteenth century interiors, and modern projects based upon Palladian and neo-classical design principles. I also have a firm grounding in other styles including Art Deco, Art Nouveau and the work of Le Corbusier, Mies Van Der Rohe, and Frank Lloyd Wright. My company can provide anything from a set of design sketches to a complete service overseeing the design and creation of a project.     

Following a private school education, I studied at Art School before going to University for a B.A. honours degree in architectural design.  I later trained as a furniture restorer whilst running an antiques shop in Brighton and these strands came together in Kensington Interiors which I founded in 1980.  I now concentrate on my work as a designer and decorator but also act as agent for clients searching for pieces of antique furniture

Please see examples of my work in the portfolio section.
