Which Dragon's Den investor created the homeware brand Kelly Hoppen Interiors?

The story behind the answer

Kelly Hoppen created the interior-design business Kelly Hoppen Interiors.

Hoppen is a British designer known for a restrained style using neutral colours, clean lines and influences from East Asian design. She began her design career as a teenager and later developed a major international practice serving residential and commercial clients.

She joined Dragon's Den as an investor in 2013 and remained on the programme for several series. Her expertise differed from that of Dragons whose backgrounds were primarily retail, technology or hospitality.

Kelly Hoppen Interiors became a wider lifestyle brand, with products and collaborations extending beyond individual interior projects. The business name is therefore more specific than simply describing Hoppen as a designer: it identifies the company she built around her design work.
