DIANE AND ZOE - WHITTEN & WILLIAMS UPHOLSTERY

Zoë

Zoë Whitten graduated from Sheffield University with a music degree and then moved to London where she worked as Administrator for British Youth Opera and then the King’s Consort before setting up her own childrens’ music classes, which she ran alongside her violin performing and teaching.

 

Having inherited some antique furniture Zoë decided to take upholstery classes when she moved out of London. 

 

What started as a hobby gradually built up from a part time to a full time job as she took on more commissions for family, friends and clients, and she and Diane were then inspired to set up together as a partnership in 2015.

Diane

Diane Williams has a background in Theatrical Costume Design and has worked in this industry for the last 25 years giving her an excellent knowledge of fabrics and their uses.

 

During this time she worked very closely with many talented

set designers and developed a keen interest in period furniture and interiors.  This motivated Diane to take an interior design course and upholstery classes to broaden her skill set.

 

She has also travelled the world extensively taking inspiration from many different cultures and styles.
