@eagle.hodges offers unexpected design details with chic, modernist flair

Eagle & Hodges

Creative director Alex Eagle is the design eye behind some of the chicest spots around and, together with her long-term collaborator Sophie Hodges, has fast become the go-to designer for the It-crowd. Tune in for unexpected style quirks, such as chinoiserie paneling paired with abstract art and modernist chairs by Pierre Jeanneret (as seen at their masterpiece-of-a-project Oakley Court), and, of course, the fabulously retro accents at 180 Health Club, which have been shared and re-shared far and wide. @eagle.hodges

Inigo

Converted chapels, rambling rectories, quaint coastal cottages… It’s as if Inigo has gathered every dream home imaginable and opened the doors for the world to see. From the same team behind The Modern House, Inigo may technically be a real-estate agent, but don’t be surprised if you find yourself returning again and again just for the interiors eye candy. For the unversed, expect a fly-on-the-wall tour of Britain’s finest DeVol kitchens, rose-arched gardens and Beata Heuman-worthy soft furnishings. @inigo.house

Playful eccentricity is @maximilianhurd’s unapologetically maximalist forte
Max Hurd’s distinctive style always includes an eclectic mix of trinkets and vintage finds

Maximilian Hurd

Look no further than designer Max Hurd’s opulent Instagram account for a masterclass in maximalism. The self-confessed dandy has left no corner of his London pad unadorned, with trinkets, objets and supersized artworks dripping from every jewel-toned wall, which he co-designed with long-term collaborator Benedict Foley. Follow him for one big, dazzling smorgasbord of clashing prints and vintage finds that reference everything from Oscar Wilde to Brazilian bordellos. @maximilianhurd

Augusta Hoffman

New York-based Augusta Hoffman is fast becoming the go-to for that highly coveted pared-back, Rose Uniacke look – think shearling, sectionals and sandy-hued schemes all round. Since launching her design studio in 2019, Hoffman has built up a clientele that includes celebrity wedding-dress designer Danielle Frankel, whose new atelier – with its sleek, poured-concrete floors and mohair-covered ’70s furniture – is pure lo-fi-luxe perfection. @augusta.hoffman

Rachel Chudley

No one masters color and texture quite like London-based designer Rachel Chudley. Her creations tip over into the realm of fine art, with intricate murals, marbles and captivating paintings in every space. Chudley’s clients – rock stars and actors among them – have been known to cry with joy at their room reveals. @rachelchudley

A cool yet classic kitchen beautifully illustrates@augusta.hoffman’s luxurious but pared-back style; while @rachelchudley’s showstopping bathroom shows off the London-based designer’s love of exquisite murals and accessories
Discover @reathdesign’s bold but laid-back authenticity – where rural goes retro

Reath Design

LA-based studio Reath Design has set the grid on fire with its eclectic yet accessible designs – think mid-century modern condo meets English country home. In the same vein as the master of ‘mix and match’ Beata Heuman, the team expertly dabbles in statement wallpapers and retro motifs, without veering into chintzy. Be prepared to bookmark every post. @reathdesign

For soothing chillout vibes, @marielouise_sjogren_design’s rustic Swedish style offers an instant dose of comforting hygge

Marie-Louise Sjögren

Sjögren’s Instagram posts may well stop you in your tracks, thanks to an instantly recognizable curation of blissed-out, barefoot vibes. Her country abode on the Swedish coast – with its breakfast room overlooking the ocean – could be straight from a film set; and her beautifully simple, rustic interiors are utterly ecapist. This Instagram account is the perfect visual antidote for any overstimulated city-dwellers who are craving rural respite. @marielouise_sjogren_design

Barlow & Barlow

Barlow & Barlow design studio has a knack for trailblazing a trend – just look at its latest project, Kin House, for proof. The Fermoie fabric-wrapped bath and blush pink, squiggle-tiled bathroom (which recently lit up social media) is just the tip of the iceberg in this vast portfolio of playful designs – all with viral potential. Follow for a masterclass on how to pull off florals, scallops and pelmets without things getting too chintzy. @barlowandbarlow

Campbell Rey

The impossibly tasteful duo Charlotte Rey and Duncan Campbell are the design prodigies behind some of the best-looking rooms on Instagram these days. Campbell Rey’s distinctively eclectic style – all jewel tones, animal prints, lacquer and low-slung furniture – references everything from Renaissance masters to Italian interiors of the 1970s. It’s difficult to resist their glossy world and its ability to transport you to another era. Look out for their restoration of a Belle Époque villa in Italy, to be unveiled soon, plus their covetable collaboration with rug company Nordic Knots. The latest design is inspired by the grandeur of Hotel Il Pellicano, no less. @campbellrey
