Instagram inspiration: Our top 8 interior profiles

Lockdown means we’re racking up the hours spent in our homes, allowing us time to visually reevaluate, analyse and pull apart our interiors.

Why not use this time to channel your inner interior designer and make the change you’ve always envisioned. We know sometimes it can be difficult to know what we want, so here’s our top eight interior focused Instagram accounts:
