David worked as a professional interior designer from the early 2000s, eventually co-founding Praed Projects, which formally closed in 2023. He isn’t quite ready to let go of that part of his life, so we’ve kept some of it here. These are the very fancy client projects that still inform our rather less restrained places to stay. Now that he’s had a break and exorcised a few demons, David occasionally takes on a design project when the right sort of trouble comes along.

But only for people who aren’t assholes.
