Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Sir Terence Conran was one of the world's best-known designers, retailers and restaurateurs. Born in 1931 he founded the Conran Design Studio in 1956, and in 1964 opened the first of the Habitat chain of home furnishing stores that revolutionized design on the British high street in the '60s and '70s and continued to expand its influence around the globe. Later Terence established The Conran Shop and opened stores in London, Paris, Germany, New York, across Japan as well as his largest store ever in Seoul, South Korea.

In the 1990s Terence founded Conran Restaurants, opening iconic restaurants, hotels and bars around the world including Quaglino's, Bluebird, Mezzo, Guastavino's and Le Pont de la Tour. His other restaurant ventures included the iconic Bibendum in Chelsea and The Boundary in Shoreditch.

In 1989 he founded the Design Museum in London, the world's first museum dedicated to design, which moved to larger premises in the former Commonwealth Building in Kensington, in 2016.

Terence wrote more than 50 informative books that reflect his philosophy - that good design improves the quality of people's lives.

Terence was knighted for his services to design in 1983, and in 2018 he was made a Companion of Honour by Her Majesty The Queen, one of the highest distinctions available in the United Kingdom.

Simon Hopkinson is one of Britain's most highly regarded food writers. His regular and much-loved column in the Independent won him the Glenfiddich Award for Cookery Writing no less than three times and Roast Chicken and Other Stories won both the Andre Simon and Glenfiddich Awards. It has also recently been voted 'the most useful cookbook' by a panel of chefs.

In 1995 Matthew Harris started working with Simon Hopkinson at Hilaire Restaurant in Old Brompton Road, London and left with him to open Bibendum in 1987 where he became Head Chef in 1995. Matthew has continued to lead the critically acclaimed restaurant to this day.
