The Bond girl-turned interior designer has a literal taste for the finer things in life.

Credited with creating the world’s first boutique hotel — Blakes in South Kensington, London — more than 40 years ago, interior designer Anouska Hempel’s portfolio runs the full gamut of luxury. This includes high-end residential and retail interiors, landscaping projects, product design for brands such as Louis Vuitton and yacht interiors to her own haute couture label worn by heads of state and British royalty.
