Tara Sampson

FOUNDER

Hello there! My name is Tara Sampson and I’m the creator of Inspires with over 14 years interior design experience in Asia, Europe, UK and the Middle East.  

 

Background

 

I’m originally from the UK. After graduating with my BA in Interior Architecture & Design, I moved to Hong Kong where I quickly threw myself into the fast paced interior design world of the bustling metropolis. Asia was the platform where I gained experience in a broad spectrum of international interior design, from luxury 5 star hotel, to high-end retail, through to luxury residential design.

 

After nearly 5 years in Hong Kong & Macau, I returned to England (with a husband!) where I continued designing in the hospitality industry, for projects in Africa and Europe. We later moved to Abu Dhabi (kids in tow) and I founded Inspires 

 

I have designed for a variety of clientele, helping them make their homes come to life, Emirati, Dutch, French, American, British, you name it! Such a variety in terms of style but all delivered with the clients’ individual ideals at the forefront.

 

My Design Ethos

 

My design approach is hands-on, where my rich international experience combined with the luxury hospitality background is a distinct advantage; from maximising small spaces (aka Hong Kong) to elegant personal family villas. I enjoy providing right sized projects; from affordable design consultations, right through to full design and build. My hospitality design experience means I have a meticulous attention to detail & commercial grade technical knowledge. I pride myself on taking the time to understand every client’s desires, which enables me to work with you to design a home which is unique to you and your individual needs and lifestyle.
