Historic Decoration was founded in 2016 by interior designer and consultant Caroline Percy and architectural historian and consultant Oliver Gerrish. Our series of study days at Syon House, Salons at Brunswick House, four day course and tours aim to explain and define the many and varied aspects of the history of British interior design and to explore the options available to assist in the restoration and reinterpretation of historic interiors today.
Our speakers are all established experts in their respective fields and they vividly describe the evolution of interiors through the centuries and suggest how this knowledge could be applied when decorating a period home in the context of the 21st century.
For the amateur as well as the professional, for the owners of historic properties and those involved in their restoration and redecoration, Historic Decoration provides a forum to offer practical advice.
