Jackie Blakey

Jackie is known for creating relaxed, well considered, stylish and timeless interiors.  She often uses colour and biophilic attitudes to provoke a sense of wellbeing in the spaces she creates.

After 21 years of corporate life at British Airways, Jackie decided to follow her passion for interiors and embarked on a major career change and enrolled at the prestigious KLC Design College to gain a recognised interior design qualification enabling her to work within the interior design industry. It was during that time that she developed a keen interest in colour psychology and went on to combine this skill in her work as an interior designer who adopts biophilic design principles.

Several years of working as an Interior Designer in the Cotswolds followed, where she immersed herself in numerous residential projects both in the UK and abroad and regularly gave talks on interior design and colour theory. That expansive design knowledge, coupled with her customer service experience, led to her setting up her own design studio where she is now able to create inspired interiors alongside offering a comprehensive service that helps her clients navigate through what can often be an overwhelming process. She is responsible for the interior design of both the Falcon Hotel and The Wellness Centre and continues to assist with design led projects on the Castle Ashby Estate.
