About Sophie Williamson Design

In German, Gastfreundschaft means hospitality—but for Sophie von Oertzen, founder of Sophie Williamson Design, it’s a way of life: a spirit of warmth, inclusion, and generosity instilled by her parents, gracious hosts across Europe. Childhood memories of lively dinners and glittering gatherings shaped her belief that true hospitality isn’t about following trends—it’s about creating spaces that feel personal, intentional, and deeply welcoming. Sophie’s homes reflect that ethos: bold, sustainable, never beige, where every element—from vibrant table settings to hand-trimmed cushions—speaks to care, character, and unapologetic style. At Sophie Williamson Design, we believe beautiful textiles and products must be made responsibly. We promote transparent supply chains, eco-friendly practices, and chemical-free textiles to protect our customers and the environment. Since 2021, we’ve partnered with Five P Ventures India, whose factory upholds strict eco-standards and employs 75% women, ensuring ethical sourcing. We use GOTS-certified organic cotton and linen, avoiding pesticides, and opt for low-impact, eco-certified dyes that reduce water waste. Our packaging is eco-conscious, sourced from sustainable suppliers, because we know sustainability is an ongoing journey. Let’s embrace bold design and environmental responsibility together.Read their story
