Accouter is an international award-winning interior design and architectural studio, renowned for crafting unparalleled prime and super-prime interiors for the world’s most discerning clients. Since opening its London studio in 2012, Accouter has transformed exclusive spaces into exceptional homes, collaborating with artisans, designers, and storytellers to bring flashes of inspiration to life. From first sketch to final touch, they create bespoke environments within the world’s most prestigious residences.

What inspired the founding of your company?

When Accouter was formed in 2012 our dream was not only to create exceptional interiors for the most prestigious homes worldwide, but to also create a company bursting with like-minded individuals with big dreams and bundles of passion.

Today, the company is a result of every individual who has been part of the journey. We have always put great emphasis on providing opportunity and empowering individuals and as a result, Accouter, together with its sister brands has become one of the fastest-growing and arguably one of the largest interior Design Portfolios in the world.

 

What is the core philosophy behind your work?

We believe that design should be both beautiful and purposeful. Our philosophy is rooted in sustainability, craftsmanship, and client collaboration, creating spaces that not only reflect our clients' lifestyles but also contribute positively to the environment and community.

Is there a particular aspect of your company or projects you’d like to highlight?

Accouter is proud to be part of Britain’s first B Corp™ certified interior design collective.

B Corps™ are defined as businesses that want to achieve more than just making a profit. Their company goals and values are committed to creating a positive impact on their employees, communities, clients and suppliers throughout their strategic decisions and operations.

As a B Corp™, Accouter, supported by its group of companies, takes a holistic approach, understanding that the overall design and the specification process itself is not the only way for us to be responsible and considerate. Sustainable milestones, as well as our Manifesto, gives our environmental ambitions credibility, and therefore proves our mission to be both purposeful and achievable. However, our B Corp™ design practice also must pay as much attention to our Social responsibilities and Corporate governance.

“We are proud to be the first British interior design collective to join this community of change-makers, alongside a global movement of people using their business as a force for good. B Corp™ is a holistic approach for us. It shapes our culture and encourages us to acknowledge our business impact and act. Most importantly, it gives us a framework for continuous improvement, so that every day, we become a little bit prouder of what we do” - Stella Gittins, Co-Founder

“B Corp™  shows that those that really want to make a change, are making a change, and that they are willing to operate in a way that puts people and the planet first, and profit second. For companies like us, the priority is to meet the highest social and environmental standards, and do so with authenticity, transparency, and full accountability.” - Alec Watt, Co-Founder
