Inside Alice Temperley’s Eccentric Country House: Art, Maximalism & English Charm
Step inside the wonderfully eccentric home of Alice Temperley, where fashion, art and storytelling collide. In this intimate house tour, the designer invites us into her listed Somerset home – a place she describes as “impractical magic” – filled with layered textures, historic details and pieces collected over a lifetime of travel, creativity and family life. From leopard-print sofas and Venetian lights to hand-painted walls, heritage textiles and rooms that shift with the seasons, every corner reflects Alice’s love of Victoriana, craftsmanship and lived-in beauty. Shared with her teenage son, animals roaming the grounds and friends constantly passing through, the house comes alive with music, conversation and community, blurring the lines between home, studio and lifestyle. This is not a show home but a soulful, deeply personal space that mirrors Alice’s approach to fashion: expressive, storied and never saved for best.

Her love of art takes centre stage, with a thoughtfully curated collection spanning Lebanese, Palestinian, Iranian and international artists – many discovered through travels, Art Basel, Art Abu Dhabi and Dubai Design Days. From embroidered and textile-led artworks to custom-designed furniture, Murano lighting and playful pops of colour, every piece has a story and a purpose. You’ll also see how Dalia blends modern design with Middle Eastern heritage, incorporating arches, mother-of-pearl details and handcrafted elements that reflect her roots. The tour continues through her intimate TV room, statement guest bathroom, semi-open kitchen designed for hosting, and out into the garden, where a retro pink bar, sunset golf views and poolside living complete the home.
