Lee Broom is one of the UK’s leading product designers and a premium global
design brand. With his highly original brand of luxury furniture and lighting
designs, his work is recognised and retailed across the globe. Since founding
the company in 2007, he has created over 100 furniture, accessory and lighting
pieces, all of which are designed, manufactured and retailed under the Lee
Broom brand. He has also collaborated with many other leading global brands
including Christian Louboutin, Mulberry, Bergdorf Goodman and Wedgwood.
Lee Broom’s designs can be seen in hotels, restaurants and homes across the
world as well as on magazine covers and in newspapers internationally. His
designs are both unique yet familiar as he takes classic styles and reinterprets
them in new and contemporary ways with an unexpected edge.
Taking inspiration from his background in fashion design, he strives to embrace
and explore new themes while keeping an overarching house style. Using the
highest quality materials, combined with the latest technology, Lee Broom
constantly evolves and innovates, resulting in his signature mix of classicism and
modernity.
Having started out in theatre school, a beginning which has greatly influenced
the sense of drama and narrative that his collections create, his career took
a change of direction after he won a fashion design competition at the age of
17. This led him to meet and then go on to work for the legendary designer
Vivienne Westwood, after which he studied for a degree in fashion design at
Central St Martins. Fashion is still a great source of inspiration and The Guardian
commented, “Lee Broom is to furniture what Marc Jacobs or Tom Ford are to
fashion.”
Lee Broom has won over 30 awards to date including the prestigious British
Designer of the Year Award and The Queen’s Award for Enterprise presented
by Her Majesty The Queen at Buckingham Palace.
Presenting his collections each year in Milan, New York and London Design
Weeks, he has gained a reputation for creating conceptual dynamic installations
which are surreal, experiential and always unexpected.
Making design a successful global business Lee Broom’s products are retailed
in over 250 stores in 50 countries around the world alongside his own flagship
showrooms in London and New York.
