Sophie Ashby

Interior Designer

Sophie Ashby, a friend of The Yellow World, is a visionary interior designer and entrepreneur with a global perspective. Half South African, half English, Sophie grew up between Cape Town and the UK before refining her craft with a BA in History of Art and studies at Parsons in New York. She founded Studio Ashby Ltd at just 25 and co-founded United Design to champion diversity in interior design. In 2021, she expanded her creative ventures with Sister by Studio Ashby, now a vibrant space in St James’s Park. I can’t wait for you to shop her exclusive edit!
