Held at the Science Museum in London, the House Beautiful Awards 2014 comprised 23 categories of excellence in home designs, products and retailers. House Beautiful Editor Julia Goodwin was joined by an expert panel of judges, including John Rocha, Nick Munro, Vanessa Arbuthnott, Oliver Hrubiak and Clarissa Hulse to decide each category winner and runners up.
House Beautiful reader-voted category Favourite Home Retailer went to Dunelm and Favourite Online Retailer went to johnlewis.com.
The House Beautiful Awards are also an opportunity to commend rising stars of the design world with the Editor’s Award going to designer and furniture maker Matthew Elton for the Ambrose A-Frame Collection for Heal’s.
In the year that House Beautiful celebrates its 25th anniversary, Editor Julia Goodwin says: ‘This year, more than ever, our judging panel, which comprises the best in the business, has been impressed by the high quality of the candidates. Customers can really trust that they’re getting great value and the most exacting standards from every company that has won or been shortlisted.‘
