Elizabeth Danon
Shopping

Elizabeth Danon has a natural creative flare and has joined Pippa Jameson Interiors as our Shopping Contributor.  Liz will have her finger on the pulse reporting on all that is new and exciting in homewares as well as working on style shopping pages.

After completing a degree in interior architecture at Brighton University I worked in London as a marketing and events coordinator. My passion for design persisted as I began some freelance interior design for a couple of clients where I managed the design from conception on some very creative projects,including a re-design for a hotel bar and reception area on Brighton seafront and a design for a lingerie boutique off Bond Street in London.  I love the freedom of design and styling, ranging from temporary structures at music festivals to sleek home interiors.  My passion for interior styling and functional space means that I am constantly on the look out for new interior accessories, gadgets, colour concepts and innovative design ideas.
