Biography
Beata was born in Sweden and set up her London interior design practice in 2013. The Studio's work is recognisable for its balanced use of colour, clean lines and imaginative details.
In March 2021, Beata published a best-selling book called "Every Room Should Sing". The book is divided into 10 chapters, with each focusing on an element of Beata's design philosophy and featuring one of the Studio's projects.
The Studio's current projects include a home in Hollywood, the reinvigoration of a rural estate in Scotland and the renovation of the Carl Eldh's studio museum in Stockholm. For more information on the Studio's interior design service and philosophy please see How We Work.
About Shoppa
Our "Shoppa" collection of homewares and furnishings is designed entirely in-house and made using a small network of trusted suppliers and craftsmen primarily in Britain and Italy. The first Shoppa item we developed, Marbleized Velvet, was made for a sofa in our first project. The collection has grown organically since – one product at a time – and now incorporates a diverse range of lighting, handles, furniture, rugs, fabrics and wallpapers.
Sold exclusively from our website and the showroom at 188, our ambition is to curate a collection filled with original products that inspire.

World of Interiors
When an 18th-century cottage became available on her parents’ farm in southern Sweden, the London-based Beata Heuman jumped at the chance to recover this ‘missing piece’ of her identity. Her childhood was forged in this idyllic rural setting, and it’s proven a wellspring of the imagination ever since.
