Today's House Guest is Sophie Robinson, the Queen of Colour

House Guest by Country & Town House | Interior Designer Interviews

Known as the Queen of Colour, Sophie Robinson is an interior designer and broadcaster and the authority on hue. In her podcast The Great Indoors with Katie Watson-Smyth, she is the aesthetic agony aunt to a nation of amateur decorators. We chat about her start in design – she specialised in plastics (surprise surprise) 'as that is where I could get the most colour in,' she says. After a degree studying wood, metal, plastics and ceramics at Brighton University, it was her YouTube channel that set her on a path to greater recognition, including BBC2's Great Interior Design Challange. She has just launched her first fabric collection with Harlequin.
