Author bio:
As a 16-year-old with a passion for design, KELLY HOPPEN was given the opportunity to redesign a family friend's kitchen. This modest commission not only created a teenage entrepreneur, it kick-started one of the most celebrated and extraordinary careers in the design industry. Now, with almost 40 years at the forefront of her field, Kelly is the recipient of numerous design awards and was made an MBE in 2009. She has been an investor on BBC 2's hit entrepreneur show Dragon's Den for two seasons, and she also fronted the Channel 5 Design Series Superior Interiors in 2011. In December 2013, she was awarded the NatWest Everywoman Ambassador award for inspiring more young women to excel.
