Designer in Profile: Deborah Bass Position within company Creative Director Company Base Interior Website www.baseinterior.com Tell us a little about your background in design (education, experience, etc) I entered the world of interior design very much ‘at the deep end’ and at quite a young age. I had been working for a property company who had just started to develop property, their interior designer had let them down at the final stages and so I was asked to complete the dressing and snagging of 2 apartments in Bayswater. Shortly after that I was given 2 apartments in Marylebone to design and project coordinate from start to finish – I had to programme and order the building materials for the contractors too – it was great training, a baptism of fire even, but very rewarding! I continued working in development and set up a strong design team whilst I trained as an Interior Designer – I trained part-time at The Interior Design School in Queens Park, with Iris Dunbar, I still go back there to help with the student crits. In later years I felt envious of my colleagues who had studied Interior Design at an Art school so I chose to study full-time Interior & Spatial Design at Chelsea College of Art & Design. In 2010 I formed Base Interior and over the past few years we have grown steadily and completed some fantastic projects. READ MORE...
