Lucy Searle

Lucy Searle has written about interiors, property and gardens for over 30 years, starting within the interiors departments of women's magazines before switching to some of the world's most loved interiors only titles in the mid-1990s. After five years as Associate Editor on Ideal Home, she became Launch Editor of 4Homes magazine for Channel 4, one of the UK's top TV channels which runs a number of high profile property shows. She made her move to digital content in 2007, launching the award-winning 4homes website which also covered everything homes and garden related. 

Following some years on the interiors freelance scene, Lucy was invited to take the role of Global Editor-in-Chief of Realhomes.com in 2018, taking what was a small magazine website to global success, pushing the brand into the US market. Following this success, she was then asked to head the UK's oldest interiors magazine, Homes & Gardens, which is celebrating over 103 years in the business. This includes editorship of the magazine, but also Global-Editor-in-Chief status of the website which is also home to other heritage brands including Period Living and Country Homes & Interiors. 

Lucy's personal property experience includes a string of renovations and she also owns rental properties in the UK and Europe. She loves the high end work of her design heroes Jake Arnold and Irene Gunter, but it certainly not scared of a hands on project with lots of budget savvy design details.
