Announcing our new Top 100 interior designers and architects for 2025

House & Garden was launched more than three quarters of a century ago and, since its inception, the magazine has been more than simply a resource for those looking for design inspiration. To look back through the archives is to see how House & Garden has always sought to champion the best of interiors and garden talent that this country has to offer. Countless designers got their big break in the pages of this magazine, which in many ways can be seen as a record of the contemporary tastes of the nation. This was formalised in 1998, when the first list of 100 leading interior designers was published in the magazine – and when an equivalent round-up of garden designers was introduced in 2019.

The Top 100 is the latest part of our 2025 Icons of Design package, following our list of Rising Stars in the April issue and Top 50 Garden Designers in the May issue. This year, seven interior design and architecture studios are making their debut on the 2025 list of the Top 100, joining the eight new names who were included in the Top 50 Garden Designers for the first time.

Today we are also revealing the winners of the House & Garden Awards 2025, including Interior Designer of the Year, Garden Designer of the Year and Project of the Year.

The Pantheon of Greats

Welcome to House & Garden’s version of a hall of fame, an addendum to our annual Top 100 Interior Designers and Architects and Top 50 Garden Designers. They are the designers in whose footsteps so many have followed, who combine experience with creativity, and who continue to inspire us all: the most influential names in interior and garden design.

Below you will find the Top 100 for 2025: it’s a much anticipated and hotly debated annual list of whom we consider to be the best interior designers and architects working on private projects in the UK today. They have different styles and take varying approaches, and their projects reflect the wide spectrum that we feature in the magazine and on the website. But what they have in common is that they are brilliant at what they do, creating interiors, houses and flats with flair, and showing sensitivity to their surroundings and the inhabitants. Assembling this list is one of the hardest tasks in the year for the House & Garden team, but the result is an exciting celebration of UK-based talent.

The Top 100 is published in our June issue, out now. You can download House & Garden on your iPhone, iPad or Android device now or subscribe today to get your issue for just £1.
