If you’re lucky enough to get a glimpse inside Sir Paul Smith’s world, you'll never want to leave. There are layers, and each one is as fascinating as the last and the next one totally unpredictable.

His studio and office, in the heart of London’s iconic Convent Gardens, is a veritable treasure drove not just of the fashion and homewares his iconic empire produce, but of incredible artworks that he and his wife have collected over the years (Warhols, Mark Quinns, Cecil Beaton and Banksys among them), that music collection all personally gifted by the musicians themselves (the notes from the artists are enough to keep you going for a few days) and then the quirky collectables and paraphernalia including signed photographs from Jane Birkin and Charlotte Rampling to MC Hammer and Vanilla Ice dolls - in original packaging - in his amazing storage space downstairs.

Get a snippet of Paul Smith’s world in Paul Smith A to Z, a beautiful hard cover coffee table book with all images shot by the designer himself.
