What is it?
Spread over three floors of an old stable building, The Conran Shop’s flagship store in Marylebone Village offers contemporary designer homeware including furniture, lighting, textiles and art. This isn’t just any old homeware store, though. It was established by modernist Sir Terence Conran, the same guy that founded the Design Museum in 1989, so careful curation, impeccable craftsmanship and unique design are of upmost importance here. The centerpiece of the store is the top floor 'Ultimate Conran Apartment' - using roomsets to demonstrate the ideal Conran interior landscape.
What does it sell?
Basically anything that’s gonna give your home that extra zhuzh. Expect an eclectic spread of wacky lampshades, colourful chairs and one-of-a-kind sofas. Design classics can be found nestled in among innovative design and 'one-off' vintage pieces that blend practicality and fun.
There’s the rooftop terrace showcasing outdoor lighting and furnishing and there’s also smaller home accessories such as vases, candles, storage, cushions and coffee table books to browse through.
Opening times
From Monday to Saturday, Conran is open 10am-6pm. On Sunday, it opens 12pm-6pm.
Time Out tip
Unwind with a coffee and slice of carrot cake at the Conran Kitchen. It is, of course, an effortlessly stylish place to take a break.
