TOP DESIGNERS 2018
BEE OSBORN – DIRECTOR, OSBORN INTERIORS
In a recent interview with Hotel Designs, Bee Osborn explained how she became the pioneering
creative that she is known as being today. Osborn admits that her favourite project was Hotel Le
Toiny in St Barths because of how everything came together at once. Osborn’s
advice to young designers is to ‘believe in yourself’ and to ‘never be too
established to stop learning’.
The designer draws inspiration from classic design and proportion, but
always infuses her work with modern up-to-date energy. Osborn is
passionate about lighting and believes it is key to any project. Together with
her experienced team, she produces balanced harmonious interiors that are
both practical and awe-inspiring.
