Athlone woman will design DFS space at Ideal Home Show

Athlone designer Susan McGowan is back as Creative Director for DFS Interiors' centre at the Ideal Home Show later this month.

Susan, of interior architecture and design studio Ashen & Cloud, will design the overall look and feel of the space for sofa specialists DFS.

For the permanent tsb Ideal Home Show (October 20-22) Susan has worked with DFS and three other design creatives who aim to show visitors ‘their thing’ at the DFS Interiors Inspiration Centre.

It takes the form of four room sets packed full of personality and is a stunning design space to browse DFS products.

Susan is delighted to be working with DFS again. “This has been a really fun, exciting project to be part of. It has been great working with this talented team of creatives, Helen, Paul and Caoimhe welcoming everyone to the DFS Inspiration Centre at the permanent tsb Ideal Home Show to draw inspiration from all the different design ideas for you to bring home to your own space.

Award-winning designer Susan will be sharing her design expertise on the DFS Interiors Stage on Sunday, October 22, at 2.20pm in the afternoon. Susan says: “ I really enjoy helping people create homes that they love, and I know there will be plenty for people to draw inspiration from no matter what their taste is in interiors. My talk this year is about mixing and matching furniture, to create a home that suits your lifestyle.”
