About Averil
Averil read History of Art at University College London and studied Interior Design at KLC School of Design. She spent four years working for Nina Campbell before founding her own practice in 2012.
Averil creates schemes that are classic yet current, with a dash of English wit. A quiet grandeur underpins her work, as does an emphasis on intimacy and comfort; Averil likes nothing more than to create a sense of home.
She owns several horses with her husband Jamie Gornall, an international show jumper, and has three miniature dachshunds. She is often to be found browsing antique shops and fairs, finding inspiration for commissions and collecting pieces for her clients’ homes.
