Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour Hosts Focus/24 with Exclusive Brand Showcases

The Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour, one of London’s most prestigious interior design hubs, is gearing up for the highly anticipated Focus/24 event. Bringing together leading names in global design, the event will celebrate the latest trends and innovations in the industry. With a program designed to inspire both professionals and design enthusiasts, Focus/24 will feature a series of exclusive launches and the participation of iconic brands, each presenting unique and exciting offerings.

A major highlight of the event is the showroom of Tom Raffield, located on the First Floor of Design Centre East. Raffield, renowned for his steam-bent natural wood creations, will showcase a collection that merges functionality with art, featuring furniture, lighting, and accessories that reflect his unmistakable visual signature. Sustainability, a core principle of the designer’s work, will be prominently featured, with low-energy production processes and responsibly sourced materials resulting in stunning, organic pieces.

Another significant presence at the event will be Fox Linton, also situated on the First Floor of Design Centre East. The British brand, celebrated for its classic designs using natural fibres, shares the spotlight with its parent company, Jim Thompson, and its more adventurous younger sibling, No.9 Thompson. During Focus/24, visitors will have the opportunity to explore Jim Thompson’s *The Shan* collection, which honours the vast Shan Highlands of Southeast Asia, showcasing fabrics that explore the region’s rich cultural traditions.

On the Ground Floor of Design Centre North, THG Paris will make its mark with a new showroom that highlights the French brand’s exceptional craftsmanship. Known for its luxurious bathroom fittings, THG Paris will present its latest *Zoom* collection, designed by Jean-Michel Wilmotte and inspired by the precision of a camera lens. The space, designed as a true architectural gem, promises to be one of the event’s standout attractions, offering an immersive experience in French elegance and innovation.

Meanwhile, on the Third Floor of North Dome, Hamilton Litestat will open the doors to its new showroom, celebrating over five decades of expertise in designing electrical switches and sockets. Since 1968, the company has been distinguished by its refined finishes and ability to innovate. During Focus/24, Hamilton will showcase its entire range of collections, including the 'Paintables' line, which can be customized in any RAL colour or delivered ready to be finished as desired. The 65 sqm showroom will also feature a dedicated meeting space and demonstration area for innovative products such as smart dimmers.

With a diverse program and the participation of brands that are leaders in the global design industry, Focus/24 is set to be an unmissable event for those seeking inspiration, innovation, and the latest trends in interior design. Once again, the Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour, establishes itself as the epicentre of design in the British capital, offering a unique experience for professionals and design aficionados alike.
