A Question of Taste<br />
Have you ever pondered why your friend’s home<br />
looks like something out of Homes and Gardens<br />
magazine, and, despite your very best efforts, your<br />
home just doesn’t? Is good taste in furnishing and décor<br />
something that you’re born with or do you have to sit<br />
through hour upon hour of TV makeover shows before<br />
you can appreciate the finer nuances of interior design?<br />
Well, don’t mention this in company, but it is possible<br />
that your friend has the services of an interior designer.<br />
Millan Interiors, who are based in the pretty village of<br />
Parbold are Lancashire’s best kept secret when it comes<br />
to interior design. Since the company was launched<br />
over ten years ago, they have transformed some of the<br />
finest homes in the area, and the business is going from<br />
strength to strength.<br />
The driving force and inspiration behind the company is<br />
Debbie Peers who opened Millan Interiors in 2008. Her<br />
mum was a seamstress and, even from her early years,<br />
Debbie knew her creative path was carved for her. After<br />
leaving school Debbie studied hard at Art and Design<br />
and was rewarded with a career at ITV, where she stayed<br />
for nearly 20 years. Initially hired to design sets for TV<br />
shows, Debbie later was promoted to Producer before<br />
she realised her dream of opening Millan Interiors.<br />
Adele Headley, Debbie’s business partner, who lives in<br />
Eccleston, worked for a lighting design company for<br />
twelve years which gave her the inspiration to study<br />
design further. She firstly completed a HNC Interior<br />
Design and Architecture where she won the student<br />
of the year award, and then continued her studies at<br />
UCLAN to complete a BA Hons. Interior Design. With a<br />
few more awards on the way, she completed her threeyear<br />
course in two years before joining forces with<br />
Debbie at Millan Interiors.<br />
