Although her first career was in the financial industry, British designer Katharine Pooley swiftly discovered that her real passion lay in interior design when she began working on her friends’ homes in Singapore. Since 2004, she has expanded Katharine Pooley Limited into an internationally well-respected brand and design studio encompassing architectural design, interior design, product design, and property development. 

I really never considered interior design as anything other than a pleasurable pastime. However, friends in Singapore, Hong Kong and Thailand were so complementary of the work I undertook in my own properties that I started to realise that design might be my true calling.
