Double Commission From Being on Surrey Artists Website

Melanie Cambridge writes about her experience this summer doing a double commission via Russell Sage Studio (Interior Design) for Pennyhill Park Hotel & Spa.

You never know what’s around the corner!

Earlier this year I was approached by Russell Sage Studio, an interior design company who were then involved with a major refurbishment at Pennyhill Park Hotel and Spa near Bagshot. This came “out of the blue” when I received a phone call from Russell Sage Studio. Jane, the main designer, said she often browsed for artists on the Surrey Artists website which was where she came across my work.

This was my first experience working with an interior designer and it came with a lot of pressure. To please them, to make sure the client was also happy. I ended up producing several colour swatches and work in progress images throughout the process, not to mention working weekends to meet some pretty tight deadlines. It was exciting to be involved as part of a team for a change, but you do need to be flexible in your approach with such a collaborative process.
