Inside a Traitors Star and Interior Designer’s Lived-In English Home

Step inside the Sussex home of Francesca Rowan-Plowden — interior designer, TV presenter, and The Traitors star — whose creative journey began in theatre before finding its way into interiors. Originally trained as an actress, Francesca brings a storyteller’s eye to her home, focusing on atmosphere, comfort, and spaces that feel deeply lived in.

Her Sussex house has evolved slowly over time, shaped by family life, intuition, and a love of pieces with history and character. Rather than chasing perfection, Francesca embraces homes that feel personal and practical — layered with texture, warmth, and meaning.

It’s a space designed to support everyday life while reflecting a strong creative point of view rooted in experience and emotion.
