About | Caroline Bolt | Bolthole Design

Caroline Bolt is the Founder and Creative Director of BOLTHOLE DESIGN, and is a registered member of the British Institute of Interior Design.

" Good design is about more than space, it's ultimately about people. When space and people are thoughtfully considered together, the resulting changes can be transformative.
Good design isn't just seen, it can be felt. It affects our emotions, changes how we live and interact, and creates a greater sense of connection and belonging.
I am passionate about what I do, because I know it makes a difference."
