The child of an antiques dealer, Melbourne-born Tamsin Johnson grew up surrounded by beautiful pieces and learned two important ground rules early on: good pieces will always be good and never overlook the value of comfort. After studying interior design at London’s Inchbald School of Design and working with a Sydney design firm for several years, Johnson set up her own practice in 2013, working from her office and showroom in Paddington, Sydney. Today, Tamsin Johnson Interior Design has projects in New York, Paris, London and across Australia, where she reinvents existing spaces and creates new ones that continue to surprise and delight.
