Stephen Webb

Stephen Webb, a design and gardening enthusiast with over 20 years of experience, is the founder and author of Simple Spaces. His journey into the world of design began alongside his love for nature—both rooted in the same desire to create environments that inspire calm, beauty, and balance.

Stephen’s passion for design took shape when he began transforming his first home. What started as a simple interest in aesthetics quickly evolved into a deep exploration of how thoughtful spaces can enhance daily life. Over the years, he has collaborated with designers, craftspeople, and creatives to refine an approach that blends simplicity, functionality, and natural harmony.

Alongside his hands-on experience, Stephen has always been drawn to writing. He sees storytelling as a natural extension of design—another way to connect, share ideas, and help others find clarity in their own creative process. Through Simple Spaces, he combines these passions to offer practical, well-researched articles that guide readers in creating homes that truly reflect their values and lifestyle.

Whether it’s finding the right balance between style and comfort, designing small spaces with purpose, or choosing sustainable materials, Stephen’s goal is to make design approachable and meaningful for everyone.
