LONDON, United Kingdom
Faura has opened a trade-only interior design residency at 75 Page Street, Westminster, London, giving interior designers, architects, developers and contractors a place to bring sourcing, presentation and project coordination together. The residency opened in September 2026, with its opening night held on 10 September.

The Faura Interior Design Residency is designed as a working showroom rather than a conventional retail destination. More than 200 brands are represented across Italian furniture, lighting, natural stone and surfaces, bathrooms and brassware, textiles, paint, and architectural hardware. Trade visitors can view products in finished spaces, develop schemes and present those schemes to clients in the same setting, with a Material Lab and sample library on hand for specification work.
For design practices, the value of a multi-category showroom is practical. A project may require decisions about a sofa, a lighting plan, stone, bathroom fittings, wall finishes and door hardware at different points in the process. Seeing those elements together can help a team test how materials, proportions and finishes relate before a specification is finalised. It also gives clients a setting in which to understand a scheme as a whole rather than as a collection of separate samples.
The residency is intended for professional use and is open to trade visitors by appointment from Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 18:00. Interior designers and architects can use the spaces for specification work and client presentations, while developers and contractors can engage with the materials and products required for larger projects. Trade clients can specify across the represented categories in one place, with the option to place one order and receive one invoice across brands.
Faura’s team also handles procurement, logistics and delivery for trade clients, with competitive trade pricing and UK-wide delivery to site and installation. Bringing those steps into one coordinated process can reduce the number of separate handoffs that a project team must manage after a scheme has been agreed. The intention is not to replace the designer’s creative role, but to give the designer a single point of coordination for the operational work surrounding a specification.
“Designers told us the hardest part of a project is rarely the design itself. It is everything around it: the sourcing, the paperwork and the logistics,” said Eugene, Director of Partnerships at Faura. “We built the residency so that a designer can specify, show the scheme to their client and place the order in one place, and then get back to designing.”
Contractor introductions are available on request for tiling, decorating, electrical and smart-home installation. These introductions provide a route for trade clients seeking support with selected parts of implementation, while the residency remains focused on the professional design and project process. The service is relevant to projects at different stages, from early material research through client presentation and procurement.
The opening comes at a time when design teams are expected to manage both the visual direction of a project and the detailed administration that allows it to move forward. Product discovery can be fragmented among specialist showrooms, supplier correspondence and separate delivery arrangements. A residency that brings multiple categories into one environment offers a more consolidated way to work, particularly when a client needs to see how an entire scheme sits together.
Continuity also matters at the handover between design and delivery. A team can keep the approved scheme as the reference point while products are ordered and deliveries arranged. For a client, the approach clarifies what happens after the presentation; for a designer, it keeps operational steps connected to the decisions that produced them.
The finished-space experience sits at the centre of Faura’s approach. Rather than asking a client to imagine the relationship between isolated products, designers can present a considered setting and discuss the choices within it. The setting makes conversations about finishes, fixtures and furniture more tangible while keeping specification decisions within a professional, trade-only environment.
Trade professionals interested in using the residency can apply for a trade account. Visits are by appointment, Monday through Friday, 09:00-18:00.
