Coote & Bernardi Furniture is the fruit of a longstanding passion for furniture design. As interior designers, John Coote and Gabriel Bernardi have always worked with carefully selected workshops at home and abroad to produce furniture and textiles of exceptional quality. Drawing on their enviable archive of furniture and textile designs and building on the relationships they have established with trusted suppliers over many years, Coote & Bernardi Furniture now makes their designs available to a wider public.

From refurbishments to new builds, Coote & Bernardi offers a complete design service, drawing on a wealth of in-house expertise and experience and working closely with the client’s architects and builders to achieve the best possible results. Equally, a dedicated in-house construction team, made up of highly skilled and carefully supervised craftsmen, means that Coote & Bernardi is also able to offer a complete design-and-build service to Central London clients. If you have an upcoming project, please feel free to contact our office to discuss your construction requirements

In 2005, John Coote and Gabriel Bernardi became acquainted through family connections and soon realised that their common interests and specific areas of specialisation made theirs a natural partnership. Both are interested in the way that interiors are used and the impact that design can have on people’s lives. Both spend a great deal of time travelling the world and following the latest developments in interior design, whilst also having a passionate interest in past design movements and the designers and people of those times.

Research plays a key role in the design process and Coote & Bernardi possesses an extensive architectural and design reference library, along with a collection of textile and furniture designs from around the world.

Coote & Bernardi specialises in the design and production of hand-made furniture in both classical and more contemporary styles, and works closely with carefully selected workshops at home and abroad that produce bespoke furniture and textiles of exceptional quality. Drawing on our design archive and building on the fruitful relationships we have established over the years with our unique suppliers, our designs are currently being made available to a wider public with the launch of our new retail venture, Coote & Bernardi Furniture.

Coote & Bernardi Furniture offers a variety of styles, suitable for a broad range of applications. Additional furniture, fabrics, accessories as well as a number of complementary antique and unusual pieces will be uploaded in the next coming months. Please call or visit our showroom should you require further information.

John Coote was founder and principal designer of Cootehill International and Cootehill Design in New York City. Born and brought up on his father’s sheep station in the Australian outback, he went on to become a designer of international renown. In over thirty years in the design business he has completed many outstanding projects, from country estates and period townhouses, to corporate headquarters and several ocean-going yachts; though he is perhaps best known for his restoration of historic houses and newly built residences in the classical style. He is renowned for the extensive knowledge of design and architectural history which informs his work, with its focus on meticulous research and historical

correctness. Among the restoration projects he has undertaken is his family’s ancestral home, Bellamont Forest, in Ireland. The property, which is one of the finest examples of Palladian architecture in Ireland, has received international acclaim in interior design journals and reference books. John retains a passion for restoring country estates and has recently begun work on a 17th century villa in Italy.

Gabriel Bernardi is a London-based designer with extensive experience in period townhouse renovation and restoration. He is a specialist in architectural detailing and has undertaken numerous large-scale refurbishment projects in the Mayfair and Belgravia areas of the city, highly praised for their attention to classical detailing and the quality of the construction work; a fact which reflects his belief that an interior should be a visual delight, even before the first curtain is hung. Gabriel strives to create interiors which are timeless and enduring, which he achieves by applying pleasing and harmonious classical proportions, however contemporary the setting;

in his view, even the most avant-garde, experimental concept, when rooted in sound, classical principles, will stand the test of time. He has a keen eye for detail and is passionate about craftsmanship and the quality of the materials and finishes used, favouring traditional materials and time honoured techniques.
