I spent a delightful afternoon off a few weeks ago with my sons wandering through Tate Modern, London’s premiere modern art destination.

As I walked through the second level, a celebration of surrealism, I was struck by how remarkable the paintings and sculptures are in this collection. This floor alone must be valued at hundreds of millions of pounds, maybe even billions. But it is easy to forget that each and every one of these artworks started out with a blank concept pad and maybe some pencils or paint. All that was needed were the ideas and handiwork of a talented artist. At Global Interior Design, the interior design consultancy that I founded, we recognise that so much of what is valuable comes to life in this way. Other UK interior design consultancies like Bentheim and Adrienne Chinn Design Company all began in the very same way - with an idea and a piece of paper. And every new project that my interior design consultancy takes on starts out with nothing more than big ideas and a touch of magic. It’s so inspirational and I go into work each and every day just so excited to passionately realise and explore the reality of “nothing to something!”
