HOW TO HONE

1. Explore

Check out our Inspire section for HONE-curated collections that have been handpicked by talented interior designers and design bloggers. This is the place to find inspirational interior design styles that are currently available to buy.

If you know what you are looking for, use our drop-down Browse menu or search bar. As you browse, click the expand icon on any item for the full description, price history and additional images. You can filter by price, colour, retailer, style and so on.

2. HONE

Once you have signed up to HONE, start liking items using the heart icon on images. We learn your preferences so we can personalise your shopping experience. We show you more of the things you love and less of what you don’t. Look out for our suggested smart filters at the top of the page.

Items you like are organised into HONE-lists on your profile. For example, if you like a certain table lamp, you can then find it in your ‘Table Lamp HONE-list’. HONE-lists are easy to review and share.

Need help visualising items together? Group them into a Collection to visualise the look for a room in your home or build an inspirational theme. Experience the joy of seeing your desired sofa, cushions and rug together in one place! Spread the joy by sending your Collection link to your flatmate, other half, or friend.

Need more help deciding? Try our fun "Honing devices"

• "HONE a friend" (ask your flatmate, your decisive and stylish friend, the person who will be sitting on that new sofa with you)
• "HONE an expert" (have a chat with an interior designer)
• "HONE the audience" (crowdsource an opinion via social media)
• "Product knockout" (get eliminating with your friends)
• "Flashcards" (quick fire visual round to let your inner decision king or queen reveal itself)

3. Buy

Once you have decided what to buy, simply click through to the retailer (e.g. John Lewis) to complete your purchase on their website.

You pay the retailer directly and the retailer fulfils your order.

All amendments, cancellations, stock enquiries, shipping, tracking, exchanges and returns are managed directly with the retailer, not HONE.
