Edward Bulmer in conversation with Giles Kime

Part of Winchester Books Festival 2024

THE COLOURFUL PAST: EDWARD BULMER AND THE ENGLISH COUNTRY HOUSE

Interior designer and architectural historian, Edward Bulmer, discusses what he has learned creating his own and many other beautiful homes, as well as restoring some of Britain's most important heritage buildings.

In conversation with Giles Kime, Interiors and Executive Editor of Country Life, he reveals how to combine the well-worn and timeless with rich new colour palettes and finishes to create colourful, comfortable and contemporary homes. An ethos which is embodied in his line of all-natural, toxic-free paints that embrace both traditional and eclectic tastes.

Edward Bulmer is an interior designer, architectural historian, and founder of Edward Bulmer Natural Paint, a popular line of all-natural environmentally friendly paints. He has been named to House & Garden's Top 100 Interior Designers, and in 2019 the magazine named his Pitshill House restoration as Project of the Year.

Giles Kime is the Interiors Editor and Executive Editor of Country Life magazine, and the author of several books.
