awhiteroom is owned and managed by david and kellie riley.
The team you see above are (left to right) ruth, ashley, kellie, david and lindsay.
kellie and david
kellie is old enough to know better. a former midwife who after 18 years of working for the nhs decided to work for herself. she loves all things gorgeous, being organised and generally keeps awhiteroom running smoothly (or that's the idea!)
something you didn't know about kellie?? her dad was a singer whose band once supported the who!!
david is a little older than kellie. he is generally the brains behind the outfit with great product knowledge as well as a practical side which has developed over the past 20 years from his experience as a joiner and shopfitter. he is brilliant at space planning and even dons his toolbelt now and again!!
something you didn't know about david?? he has a massive passion for music and recently graduated from salford uni with a degree in popular music!!
other key players who operate regularly under awhiteroom's umbrella include the lovely michelle a cheshire based interior designer who has worked with awhiteroom on various projects including showhouses and hotels as well as exclusive projects for private clients.
Lindsay and Ashley
Lindsay is super organised and runs a tight ship, responsible for the logistics and running of the office here. Married with children, she loves to learn new things. Her favourite brands are Momiji and Kartell because of their playful nature.
Ashley is the creative mind and gets excited over new colours, responsible for styling of displays and consulting on all design issues. A recent MA graduate in textiles, Ashley is also a design lecturer at Nelson and Colne College.
Ruth
The newest member of the team and a really busy bee! Ruth is in charge of the stock, checking, packing and arranging deliveries. Lively and funny, when she's not telling us of her eventful weekend, she's planning the next!
Finally, how could we function without Craig and Paul who are the brains behind our web presence.
