We invite you to take part in a dialogue between audience and designer, exploring Alidad’s philosophy, design tips and the inspirations that have shaped the beautiful and unique interiors he has created over many years of living in this country.

English homes have been influenced by the Oriental aesthetic ever since the Crusaders brought back Turkish carpets to warm their draughty medieval halls. Over the centuries our historic houses have been enriched with furniture, textiles and works of art from the Middle and Far East. 

Alidad’s colourful interiors transcend fashion and draw inspiration from his Iranian heritage. He cleverly combines elements of both eastern and western traditions, reflecting his profound understanding of the history of both the Oriental and European decorative arts.
