During a career spanning over 30 years, renowned interior designer Kathryn M Ireland has designed homes for the rich and famous in Hollywood, including Steven Spielberg and Steve Martin, and has taken on the challenge of transforming several idyllic French country houses.
Born in London and brought up between there and Scotland, Kathryn moved to Los Angeles in the late 1980s.
