Designeers Website Terms and Conditions
Last updated: August 2026
Please read these Website Terms and Conditions carefully before using www.designeersclub.com (the “Website”).
Designeers is operated by Style Ventures Ltd, trading as Designeers, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 12995398, whose registered office is at Unit 2.02 High Weald House, Glovers End, Bexhill, East Sussex, England, TN39 5ES (“Designeers”, “we”, “us” or “our”). “You” means the individual or entity accessing or using the Website.
These terms govern use of the public Website. If you hold a Designeers Club membership or use the Designeers Members Lounge, that relationship is additionally governed by our Membership Terms. Where the Membership Terms and these Website Terms conflict in relation to membership, the Membership Terms prevail.
Certain purchases, events, Design Journeys, Experiences, advertising, sponsorships, brand partnerships or other services may be subject to separate terms or a written commercial agreement. Those specific terms prevail in relation to the relevant transaction.
Your use of the Website is also subject to our Privacy & Cookies Policy.
By accessing or using the Website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the Website.
The Designeers Platform
The Website is an editorial and discovery platform for the international design community. It may include the Designeers Journal, BlackBook, Destination Guides, Gallery, Experiences, information about the Designeers Club and Members Lounge, brand collaborations, advertising, sponsored content and other features introduced from time to time.
Content is provided for general information, inspiration and discovery. Unless expressly stated otherwise, publication on Designeers does not constitute professional, legal, financial, architectural, technical or other specialist advice.
Intellectual Property and Our Content
Unless otherwise stated, the Website and its content, including editorial text, interviews, graphics, logos, page design, selection and arrangement of content, databases, the BlackBook compilation, and photography or imagery commissioned by or licensed to Designeers, are owned by or licensed to us and are protected by copyright, database, trade mark and other intellectual property laws.
You may access the Website for lawful personal or internal business reference and may share links to publicly available pages.
You must not, without our prior written permission, reproduce, republish, distribute, sell, license, systematically download, scrape, crawl, extract, create a database from, commercially exploit or otherwise reuse a substantial part of the Website or its content.
You must not use automated means to harvest BlackBook entries, Gallery information, contact information or other Website data for prospecting, marketing, artificial-intelligence training datasets, directory replication or other commercial purposes except where expressly authorised by us.
Nothing in these terms grants a licence to use the Designeers name, logo, Member Badge, BlackBook identity or other trade marks except where separately authorised in writing.
Editorial Independence
Designeers maintains editorial independence over the Journal, BlackBook, Destination Guides, newsletters, social media and other editorial channels.
Submitting a project, product, collection, story or other material does not guarantee publication. We decide what to publish, how material is edited or presented, where it appears and how long it remains available.
Club membership does not guarantee editorial coverage or BlackBook inclusion. BlackBook selection is independently curated and cannot be purchased through Club membership.
We may separately enter into paid advertising, sponsorship, brand partnership, advertorial or other commercial arrangements. Where required by applicable law or advertising standards, commercial content will be identified appropriately.
Editorial and Other Submissions
If you send us text, photography, video, project information, product information, biographies, press materials or other content for possible editorial, BlackBook, Gallery, promotional or other agreed use, you confirm that you are entitled to provide that material to us and that its intended use by Designeers will not infringe third-party rights.
You remain responsible for securing any necessary permissions, licences and credits, including from photographers, designers, architects, artists, brands, property owners and other rights holders.
Unless otherwise agreed, you retain ownership of material you provide. Where you submit material for consideration, you grant Designeers a non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to review, store and, if selected, reproduce, crop, format and display that material for the purpose for which it was supplied and for reasonable promotion of the resulting Designeers content across our Website, newsletter and social channels.
We may edit supplied text for length, house style, clarity, accuracy and presentation while seeking to preserve its substantive meaning.
You must tell us about any material usage restriction, embargo, mandatory credit or expiry before publication. We are not responsible for restrictions that were not disclosed to us.
We may decline, remove or update submitted material at our discretion, subject to any separate written agreement.
The Designeers BlackBook
The Designeers BlackBook is an independently curated editorial directory of selected designers, studios, makers and other creative practices.
BlackBook inclusion is not a certification, accreditation, warranty or guarantee by Designeers of a listed practice, its services or its suitability for a particular project.
Information in a BlackBook profile may be supplied by the listed practice or drawn from information made available to Designeers. We aim for accuracy but do not guarantee that every profile remains complete or current at all times.
Users should conduct their own due diligence before appointing, purchasing from or entering into any arrangement with a person or practice discovered through the BlackBook.
Gallery and Products
The Designeers Gallery and other product-related pages are primarily presentation, editorial and discovery spaces unless a page expressly states otherwise.
Product descriptions, dimensions, materials, availability, lead times, pricing and other information may be supplied by third parties and can change. You should confirm material details directly with the relevant maker, studio, brand or seller before ordering or specifying a product.
Unless expressly stated that Designeers is the seller, any purchase or contract relating to a product displayed on the Website is between you and the relevant third party. Designeers is not responsible for manufacture, fulfilment, delivery, returns, warranties or product performance.
Brand Partnerships, Advertising and Sponsored Content
Designeers works commercially with selected brands and partners through advertising, sponsorship, events, content collaborations, newsletter placements, social campaigns and other promotional formats.
Commercial relationships do not entitle a partner to independent editorial coverage, BlackBook selection or favourable editorial treatment unless a specific promotional deliverable has been expressly agreed as part of the commercial arrangement.
Specific campaign deliverables, fees, payment terms, usage rights, cancellation terms and timelines may be set out in a proposal, insertion order, invoice, email agreement or other written commercial agreement. Where such terms conflict with these Website Terms in relation to that campaign, the specific commercial agreement prevails.
Performance statistics, audience figures and forecasts may change over time. Unless expressly guaranteed in writing, we do not guarantee impressions, clicks, enquiries, sales, commissions or other commercial outcomes from a partnership or advertisement.
Experiences, Events and Design Journeys
The Website may advertise or facilitate applications or bookings for Designeers Salons, events, Design Journeys and other Experiences.
Participation may be subject to separate eligibility, booking, payment, cancellation and conduct terms provided at the time of application or booking. Those terms form part of the relevant booking.
Event programmes, speakers, venues, visits and timings may occasionally need to change. Any rights you have in those circumstances will be governed by the applicable booking terms and mandatory law.
Membership and the Members Lounge
Information about Designeers Club membership on the Website is provided subject to our Membership Terms and the membership information presented at the point of joining.
Access to the Members Lounge may be hosted by a third-party community platform. Membership benefits, renewals, trials, Member Privileges, Industry Partners, community conduct and termination are governed by the Membership Terms rather than these Website Terms.
Third-Party Websites, Services and Partners
The Website may link to websites, social-media accounts, booking services, payment providers, products, businesses or other services operated by third parties.
Links are provided for convenience, attribution or discovery and do not necessarily constitute endorsement. We do not control third-party sites and are not responsible for their content, availability, security, privacy practices, terms, products or services.
Any transaction or relationship you enter into with a third party is between you and that third party unless we expressly state otherwise.
Acceptable Use
You must use the Website lawfully and must not interfere with its operation or security.
You must not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Website, accounts, servers or data; introduce malware or malicious code; circumvent technical restrictions; impersonate another person; submit knowingly false or unlawful material; infringe intellectual property or privacy rights; or use the Website to harass, defame or unlawfully target another person.
We may restrict or block access where we reasonably believe the Website is being misused or these terms are being breached.
Availability and Accuracy
We work to keep the Website useful, accurate and available, but it is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis.
We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, that the Website will be free from errors or harmful components, or that every piece of content will remain complete, accurate or current.
Design information, addresses, opening hours, prices, product availability, event details and other third-party information can change. Where information matters to a decision, you should verify it with the relevant third party.
Liability
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability where doing so would be unlawful, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.
If you are a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights.
Subject to those protections, we are not responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on third-party information, the acts or omissions of a designer, maker, brand, venue, Industry Partner or other third party, transactions entered into with third parties, or third-party websites and platforms outside our reasonable control.
If you use the Website for business purposes, to the fullest extent permitted by law we will not be liable for loss of profit, revenue, business, anticipated savings, goodwill, opportunity or indirect or consequential loss arising from use of the public Website.
Where our liability in connection with a separately purchased membership, Experience, campaign or other paid service is addressed by specific terms governing that service, those specific liability provisions apply.
Privacy and Cookies
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy & Cookies Policy.
Where you provide personal information about another person, you are responsible for ensuring that you are entitled to provide it to us for the relevant purpose.
Suspension, Removal and Changes to the Website
We may suspend, withdraw, restrict or change all or part of the Website where reasonably necessary, including for maintenance, security, editorial, legal or business reasons.
We may remove content that we reasonably believe infringes rights, breaches these terms, is unlawful, is materially inaccurate or is otherwise inappropriate for the Website.
Where you hold a Club membership, suspension or termination of the membership itself is governed by the Membership Terms.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Website Terms from time to time. The latest version will be published on the Website with its effective date.
Where a change materially affects an existing paid service, any additional notice or rights will be governed by the terms applicable to that service.
Severability and Waiver
If any provision of these terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Where possible, the affected provision will be interpreted or modified only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable.
A failure or delay by us in exercising a right does not waive that right.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Website Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them are governed by the laws of England and Wales.
Subject to any mandatory consumer rights concerning jurisdiction, the courts of England and Wales shall have jurisdiction in relation to disputes arising from these terms.
If you are a consumer resident outside England and Wales, nothing in this clause deprives you of mandatory protections or jurisdiction rights that apply under the law of your country of residence.
