Emma Burns, Managing Director of esteemed interior design studio Sybil Colefax and John Fowler, is a true doyenne of décor. Known for lending her exceptional eye to crafting spaces that are as stylish as they are functional, she invites Patrick O’Donnell to her converted dovecote home to discover her story through colour, accompanied by her pug Dahlia and novelty plastic pigeons.

 

Together they delve into a shared love for muddy shades of nature, childhood memories of Devon skies, the importance of curiosity in interior decorating and the beauty of embracing imperfection.
