Francis Sultana Designs and Interiors By: Bronwyn Cosgrave Edited by Bronwyn Cosgrave Foreword by Yana Peel Contributors Gianluca Longo, Brook Mason This book, investigating Francis Sultana’s work as an interior designer, celebrates the 10th anniversary of his eponymous London studio and highlights an important professional achievement. Since 2015, Francis Sultana has ranked consecutively on the ‘AD100’.
