The window of the British interior designer Tamsin Saunders’s childhood bedroom looked out onto the South Downs, the rolling hills that culminate abruptly in steep chalk cliffs along England’s southeast coast. The landscape’s rugged beauty instilled in her an affinity for the patterns and textures of the natural world. She spent her early years in the nearby forests, collecting fossils and gathering fragments of wood to decorate with paint. Now, at 52, Saunders is just as devoted to such foraged treasures. Home & Found, the studio she established in 2013, specializes in sensitively renovating houses — often those of artists and makers — by building on what she discovers there.
