Martyn Lawrence Bullard is heralded as a consummate multi-hyphenate designer and tastemaker, widely acclaimed for his trademark glamour and exotic flair. As such, his talent has attracted the attention of Hollywood A-listers and glitterati, many of whom have invited him to curate their interiors. His client list includes Kendall Jenner, Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian, Cher and Eva Mendes, just to name a few. For each of his clients, Martyn personalises their homes with intricate attention to detail using a broad range of styles.

Seeing his creativity come to life in these spaces begs the question: what does his own home look like?
