Buying Guides
Published in 1974, the first edition of Sir Terence Conran’s revolutionary The House Book covers every aspect of home décor from choosing suitable storage to correctly laying out a cutlery drawer. Providing new techniques and supportive advice on how to improve the aesthetic of one’s home remains central to the service we offer here at The Conran Shop. We continue to build upon Sir Terence’s legacy, offering interiors hints and tips, and buying guides for sofas, lighting, beds, and more.
