Traditional English Interior & Browsing for Antiques in the Cotswolds

Step inside a colorful British interior design studio in the heart of the Cotswolds. Today we’re meeting interior designer Sean Symington, who takes us through his creative process, design philosophy, and the inspiration behind his bold use of colour, pattern, and antiques.

Sean shares how he came from Canada to England, built his design studio in Tetbury, and why his spaces always feel like a real home. We’ll look at moodboards, fabrics, and projects in progress – and yes, you’ll also meet his sweet “office manager”, Penny the dog.

Afterwards, we head out into Tetbury, one of the Cotswolds’ best towns for antiques. Sean gives us his tips on browsing antique shops and mixing high-end pieces with unexpected finds. We’ll also show you a couple of treasures we discovered ourselves.

If you love British interiors, colourful design, and the timeless charm of the Cotswolds, this video is for you.
