Thoughtfully designed, British-made homeware and gifts for modern country living

Sophie Harmer Home & Design is a British homeware and giftware brand rooted in the timeless charm of the countryside. Designed and curated in England, the collection brings together illustrated prints, ceramics, textiles, vintage furniture and decorative home interiors that celebrate slower living, nature, and traditional British design.



Founded by artist and designer Sophie Harmer, the brand is built around thoughtful craftsmanship, storytelling, and a deep appreciation for home as a place of comfort, character, and personal expression.


What Is Sophie Harmer Home & Design?

Sophie Harmer Home & Design is an independent British homeware and gift store offering a carefully curated mix of:

  • Illustrated art prints and greeting cards

  • Ceramic mugs and kitchenware

  • Soft furnishings and decorative accessories

  • Handwoven natural rattan baskets

  • Vintage and antique furniture

  • Countryside-inspired home décor


Many designs are illustrated, printed, or finished by Sophie herself, ensuring each piece feels personal, original, and rooted in the brand’s creative identity.


The collection blends country cottage style, classic rural aesthetics, and functional design, making it ideal for both traditional and contemporary homes.


The Story Behind the Brand

At the heart of Sophie Harmer Home & Design is a love of drawing, making, and the British landscape.

Sophie’s work is heavily inspired by:

  • The English countryside

  • Gardening and seasonal living

  • Rural animals and working landscapes

  • Traditional homes, barns, and farmhouses

  • Vintage furniture and well-loved interiors


Every product begins with the same question:“Would this feel at home in a calm, characterful, lived-in space?”


That philosophy runs through everything, from illustrated prints designed to sit quietly in kitchens and hallways, to furniture pieces chosen for their history, craftsmanship, and longevity.

British Homeware, Designed to Last

Sophie Harmer Home & Design focuses on quality over quantity.

Wherever possible, products are:

  • Designed in the UK

  • Made in Britain or responsibly sourced

  • Created using traditional materials and processes

  • Intended to be kept, used, and enjoyed for years

  • Vintage or Antique pieces that are saved and restored, ensuring sustainability


This approach naturally aligns with a more sustainable way of decorating, buying fewer, better things that age beautifully rather than following fast-moving trends.


A Curated Collection, Not Mass Production

Unlike large homeware retailers, Sophie Harmer Home & Design does not aim to stock everything.

Instead, the collection is intentionally edited, with each product chosen because it fits the brand’s aesthetic and values. This includes:

  • Limited-run illustrated prints

  • Small-batch ceramics

  • One-off vintage furniture pieces

  • Seasonal home accessories

  • Handmade and artisan items


This means stock is always evolving, but the core identity remains consistent: calm, countryside-led, and thoughtfully designed.
