About

Simon Hamilton is the Founder of Simon Hamilton Creative and a Senior Design Director with a broad, interdisciplinary practice. His work spans interior design, creative direction, brand development and cultural programming, shaped by a deep understanding of how design operates commercially, spatially and socially. He is known for his clarity, adaptability and instinctive ability to guide projects and people with confidence.

Simon’s interior design experience covers workplace, residential, healthcare, retail and hospitality environments, giving him a wide perspective across the built environment. Alongside this, he is frequently appointed to support practices and individuals with creative direction, brand positioning, personal styling and the curation of interior spaces, helping align narrative, identity and experience with intention and quality.

A committed advocate for social justice and inclusion in design, Simon volunteers for organisations such as United in Design. He thrives in interdisciplinary environments, champions emerging voices, and believes in design as a powerful tool for positive cultural and social change.

I have had the pleasure of collaborating with Simon throughout the past year as part of the #designyourfuture program, which is tailored for young secondary school students. Simon brings with him a large experience in both design and the education sector. His expertise has significantly enhanced the program, as he generously shares his knowledge and insights with the students.

One aspect of the program that Simon particularly excelled in was providing valuable guidance on navigating the design industry and building a successful career path. He offered practical advice to students on preparing their CVS and portfolios for job applications.
