The ET Design Center is a place to come touch, feel, and test-drive some of your favorite products from our site and see how beautifully they can be mixed and made your own. Visitors can book and enjoy a (totally free!) consultation with an English Traditions designer who will inevitably become your new best friend in home decor. He or she will sit with you, listen to what you need, look at whatever you’ve brought in for inspiration—photographs of your house, tears from a magazine—and then guide you to help find the English Traditions pieces you need. The designers know our inventory and vendors and can help you on your journey to create a home you love!
Once you book a consultation, your designer will reach out to learn more about any projects you are working on and your personal tastes. If you don’t have a specific design need in mind, that’s okay! Your designer would still love to connect with you to get a sense of your style.
No! A visit to The ET Design Center is absolutely free, as is the inspiration and advice you’ll find there. You’ll pay only for any products you might buy via our website during your consultation.
In your appointment, you and your designer will discuss your style needs! You’ll leave your session with a clear direction for any projects you’re working on—and a shopping list for items that can help your stylish dreams come true.
Anything you can provide in advance will help drive your conversation. Pictures of your current space, floor plans, measurements, and inspirational images will give your designer an idea of your space and style. If you know you are working within a certain budget, please let us know that as well, so we can tailor the conversation to your needs. Feel free to email any images or information to info@englishtraditions.com before your appointment.
While we’d love to show you everything, we have thousands of products available online and only so much space. Our designers update the space seasonally to showcase how you can mix the wide range of new pieces, vintage finds, artisanal creations, and designer favorites we currently love.
Of course! During your visit, a designer can help you order online any pieces you love and have them delivered to your home! Or you can bring your shopping list home and make a final decision about what to buy later.
