When our Next in Design 2025 winner, Lucy Goldbart, launched her eponymous studio in 2022, she was already equipped with a wealth of experience from two of London’s most respected firms. She began her career at Fiona Barratt Interiors, where she learned the value of pushing design boundaries and encouraging clients to be more adventurous.
Later, as a senior designer at Elicyon, she refined her skills in project management and process. ‘It’s such a well-oiled machine,’ she says of founder Charu Gandhi’s practice. ‘I learned so much about organization and how to manage large-scale projects.’
