Founded in 1993 by mother-and-daughter duo Leigh and Pat Boswell, what began as a small interior design studio has grown into one of Australia’s most respected design houses and furniture and homewares destinations. Today, Leigh’s daughter Chelsea proudly joins the business, making Highgate House a true three-generation, female-led family enterprise.

In our early years, our focus was solely on interior design - helping clients transform their homes into spaces that reflected their lives and stories. Over time, our love for quality craftsmanship and design excellence led us to create our own exclusive furniture and homeware collections. Today, we travel the world to collaborate with trusted artisans and factories, designing pieces that are unique to Highgate House in Australia. Each collection is the result of thoughtful design, meticulous attention to detail, and an unwavering commitment to quality, form, and function, creating timeless pieces that are built to last a lifetime.

At the heart of Highgate House is a belief that exceptional design should always be matched by exceptional service. We offer a range of services to suit your needs - whether that’s full-service design, single-room selections, styling a space, in-store guidance, or virtual suggestions. We take pride in providing a warm, personal approach, ensuring every client feels supported and inspired throughout their journey with us.

Our style is layered, textured, and globally inspired, reflecting a love of rich materials and thoughtful design. From furniture and bespoke upholstery to cushions and accessories, every piece is carefully considered to create spaces that feel curated, comfortable, and uniquely personal.

Our online store makes it easy to experience Highgate House from anywhere in Australia. With a seamless shopping experience, attentive customer support, and speedy delivery, we ensure that bringing our signature style into your home is simple, convenient, and enjoyable.
