    Over the years, New Heritage Design has delivered a host of high-profile interior design projects in the UK and abroad, ranging from grand Georgian manors to luxury treehouses.

    The studio is inspired by the theatre of design and the ability of an interior environment to shape the moods and mindsets of those within it. By combining interesting layers of modern materials, alongside classic antiques, vintage finds and contemporary crafts, New Heritage Design creates unique, imaginative and engaging spaces with soul.

    Thanks to an extensive network of suppliers, the design studio is able to source anything from original period pieces to retro artefacts and rare originals, adding depth and character to designs, ensuring no two spaces are ever the same.

    The studio’s considered fusion of past and present has helped clients launch brands, win awards and reach new audiences, bringing warmth and personality to every space the team work on.

    Thanks to Creative Director Hannah Lohan’s diverse background, first as a TV producer and then running her own creative events agency, her team is fastidious about every detail – from operational challenges, to considering every touch point that guests experience.

    Lohan has also been lucky to have invaluable exposure to the global hotel scene, thanks to many years spent working closely with her brother James Lohan, founder of boutique travel specialists Mr & Mrs Smith, which has given her an original and informed perspective on the hospitality sector.

    Since 2019, New Heritage Design has been busy working on an ongoing village restoration project, The Collective at Woolsery, in North Devon. This hugely exciting project consists of a completed pub refurbishment, The Farmers Arms, as well as several holiday cottages and a hotel in the old manor house, which is set to open in 2025. In addition, the holistic project includes a bakery and several farm buildings.

    The project has been ‘such a wonderful’ opportunity for New Heritage Design to demonstrate what the studio does best, which is to work with colour, texture, layers and an eclectic mixture of materials and furnishings to tell interesting design stories that are rooted in history but always have a modern, playful twist that delight and surprise.
