Introducing the Black Book Collaborative for exclusive offering a white glove concept to completion service. MINI BIOGRAPHY:

partment at international Beauty corporate Coty UK Ltd, assisting on the Rimmel & Cutex brands. In order to realise her passion for Interior Design, Clare left her career in Marketing and Brand Management to study at the prestigious KLC School of Interior Design in Chelsea, completing the course with Honors. After working as Assistant to Swedish style interior designer Sasha Waddell, Clare went on to establish her London based design firm Molten UK Ltd in 2000, and later Pascoe Interiors Ltd. Fourteen years later, and counting, Clare still loves her job with a passion that transfers to each individual project. Clare is approachable, professional and knowledgeable, and brings confidence, efficiency and an individual design eye to all projects. DESIGN STYLE:
Having been an avid personal collector of Mid Century furniture, Clare developed an in depth love, knowledge and appreciation for Mid Century furniture and Modernist design. These inspirations went on to shape Clare’s signature Vintage Contemporary design style. By placing key pieces of Mid Century furniture within contemporary settings, against a pared back Nordic palette accented with bold accents and tactile textures, Clare’s highly desirable interiors are clean lined and perfectly balanced. SUSTAINABLE DESIGN POLICY:
By sourcing primarily from a network of UK and European dealers, British Designer Makers and skilled British Suppliers, such as the last remaining fabric mills across the UK, Clare proves that sustainable can be attainable and beautiful. Clare believes that all designers have a duty to design responsibly by reusing and reupholstering comfortable & timeless pieces whose current aesthetic does not fit the new scheme to reduce the impact on landfill and to ensure that Clients buy only items that will offer true longevity rather than quick or impulsive fixes, even if that means waiting a bit longer to buy that much coveted item. This policy is a goal to delivery beautiful, ethical interiors that does not restrict creativity or Client choice; rather Clare presents Clients with a wide range of options from which they can then make a fully informed decision to suit and future proof their lifestyle.
