Hello!

We’re Sophie and Emily - the founders of Chrisp + Waterhouse, an award-winning interior design practice built on the foundation of friendship and a shared passion for hospitality and leisure spaces.

Whilst C+W was founded in 2022, our expertise spans over 15 years across both the UK and international design industries.

Our goal is simple: to create spaces that look great and function beautifully in the real world—drawing inspiration from the history of the architecture we inhabit, the local surroundings, and the personality of our clients and their brands.

We’re confident in delivering a wide range of projects including, bars, restaurants, cafés, hotels, delis, and more - across high streets, shopping malls, airports, and cruise ships. We also take pride in supporting clients who are working to meet sustainability criteria, helping ensure a smaller environmental footprint.

At Chrisp + Waterhouse, collaboration is key. We work closely with clients, their teams, and contractors to ensure every design hits the brief and delivers exceptional results. Whether it’s space planning, developing a new concept, planning applications, shopfront designs, or full design packages, we’ve got you covered from start to finish.
