About Emily May Designer

A home that works for your life

Emily May Designer is an independent home editorial publication about making everyday rooms feel comfortable, useful and personal. We cover living rooms, bedrooms, kitchens and dining spaces, alongside ideas for smaller homes where every decision needs to earn its place.

Our starting point is the life a room has to accommodate: somewhere to put a cup of tea, a dining table that leaves space to walk past, a bedroom that feels calm when the laundry has nowhere else to go. The aim is a considered home, built through manageable decisions rather than a complete shopping list.

What you will find here

Our guides connect decorating choices with practical constraints such as room measurements, storage needs, cleaning, light and budget. Buying advice explains what to check before ordering and where a less expensive option may be sufficient. A beautiful photograph is a starting point for an idea, not a promise that a product will suit every household.

• Room planning and decorating ideas for daily routines.
• Furniture and textile guides organised around real household needs.
• Small-space advice that prioritises circulation and useful storage.
• Clear distinctions between editorial guidance, manufacturer information and commercial links.

Our editorial approach

Emily May Designer is the publication's brand name. Our articles are editorial guides, and we do not present the site as a named designer's practice or claim professional qualifications. We do not claim to have used, measured or tested products unless an article explicitly explains that work.

Photography illustrates room ideas and styling possibilities. An image does not establish that we own the pictured room or have tested its furnishings. Product availability, dimensions, delivery arrangements and returns should always be checked with the seller before purchase.

We are independent of other similarly named websites and businesses. Read our Editorial Policy and Affiliate Disclosure for more on how the publication works.
