As OKA’s founders say, the magic of it is in the mix: “hand-picked global treasures, rich textures and patterns, and timeless furniture profiles. It’s ever-changing but unwaveringly British; elegant and easy-going; sophisticated but never stiff.”
Next, Liberty London is the preeminent department store for luxury fabrics and interiors - some of the best we’ve ever seen. Founded in 1875, Arthur Lasenby Liberty searched the globe for luxury goods, hoping to metaphorically dock a ship in the city streets.

For a late dinner, we’ll get you into Sessions Art Club, a Clerkenwell staple whose studio ethos sets the scene for a truly unique culinary experience intertwined with an art and performance space that owners say “moves and shifts with the seasons” via its curated collective program.
