Designer in Profile: Doreen Chambers Position within company Principal Company Doreen Chambers Interiors Website www.Doreenchambers.com Tell us a little about your background in design (education, experience, etc) Being the assistant to the world-renowned architect Peter Marino, I was introduced to the world of interior design. I was so intrigued by the residential interior design I went on to study at the New York School of Interior Design. How would you describe your personal interior design style? My interior design style is relaxed, elegant with a touch of glamour. Certain elements are present in all my projects: an eclectic mix of cashmere, velvet, linen, wool, damask fabrics, custom finishes and soothing color palettes, creating a contemporary take on the classics. Where does your design inspiration come from? Design inspiration can hit at any moment. Traveling to different countries and being introduced to different cultures is always eye opening. I’ve just returned from Fez and Marrakesh in Morocco where I was struck not just by the craftsmanship, but also the traditions that continue in a cooperative of rug weavers, potters, tanners, weavers, metal workers and embroiderers all creating stunningly beautiful hand-crafted objects. It was truly an inspiring trip, I learned a lot and came away with a wealth of ideas that will reflect in some future projects. In what direction do you feel that design is moving towards in a general sense? I’ve noticed, particularly since the meteoric rise of Gucci’s fashion designer, Alessandro Michele that we’re embracing a much more exuberant palette of color, pattern and texture combinations put together in a very personal eclectic way. Traditional textiles such as silk damask, paisley and velvet are also having a moment, which I’m thrilled about as it’s been all about taupe and grey linen for such a long time. 32 Design Industry Weekly News
