HOUSE TOUR | At Home with India Hicks in The Bahamas
Рет қаралды 136,709
Күн бұрынJoin us as we visit the stunning Bahamas oasis of India Hicks. An accomplished author, designer, former model, and entrepreneur extraordinaire, India seamlessly blends beachy charm with modern beauty in her seaside home, creating a comfortable and inviting retreat.
For more extraordinary home tours, visit our website: homeworthy.com
India hails from both British and design royalty, so an appreciation for the finer things is in her blood. As the daughter of renowned interior designer David Hicks - who transformed interiors with his bold patterns and vibrant colors - and British aristocrat Lady Pamela Hicks - daughter of Louis Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma - India was destined for a life of elegance and sophistication. With King Charles III as her godfather, it’s no wonder she possesses such refined taste and a keen eye for detail. Her background in fashion modeling - working with brands like Ralph Lauren and Emilio Pucci - and her extensive travels have profoundly influenced her distinctive style as well.
Situated on the simultaneously laid-back and upscale Harbor Island, India's home reflects her unique style. With five children, she has created a space that balances family life with aesthetics. Each room is filled with carefully curated pieces that pay homage to both her British heritage and island life.
Beyond her design prowess, India is deeply committed to humanitarian work. In the wake of Hurricane Dorian, she partnered with the Global Empowerment Mission (GEM) to provide critical disaster relief. She established a Food Bank on Harbor Island and continuously volunteers to improve the lives of those affected. GEM's mission is to provide emergency aid, sustainable development, and long-term recovery programs to those in need, and India has been a pivotal part of their efforts in the Bahamas.
Today, she invites us into her slice of paradise, sharing the inspiration behind her home and offering a glimpse into her life on the island.

@SVNopq I highly doubt that! Otherwise, she would have made it a point to mention that ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Sadly, not many high-profile celebrities have the courage to speak out against Zionism or speak up for the children of Palestine. 😢

Thank you for this Homeworthy, with India Hicks. I remember her from Charles and Diana’s wedding, fascinated by her name - me wanting to be Autumn instead of Jody - and over the intervening years have followed her in magazine articles loving her style. So to see and watch her was great. She seems like a lovely person, very interesting and her home is gorgeous.

How unusual to find anyone (a designer, homeowner) these days saying things don’t have to be perfect and everything in a home must be coordinated and matching.. That is her English heritage shining through. English country house displaying layers of history and differing styles all mixed up together, but yet working as a whole. Lovely to watch ; it took me back to David Hicks giving me a private tour of Britwell Salome in Oxfordshire back in the 1970’s
