Imagination meets considered living

An award-winning interiors store redefining homes from Cornwall’s coast.

There is nothing hesitant about Olive Black Interiors; it is deliberately different and unashamedly bold in what it has to offer, personally guided by the discerning hand of its owner, Sam. Inside, colours, objects and textures encourage conversations that draw inspiration from a heady mix of fabrics and furnishings, inviting you to explore further.

As an award-winning home interiors and lifestyle store in the heart of Polperro, Olive Black Interiors has become a recognised stop for those seeking to devise rooms with depth and individuality. Sam describes her aim simply: “I want to help people create warm, cocooning, eclectic spaces that make for a truly beautiful and comfortable home – layered, inviting and full of personality.” That intention is very evident, manifesting itself through the Big Green shop, where paint finishes, lighting, textiles and furniture are arranged with an assured confidence.

Independent brands sit alongside specialist paints and thoughtfully sourced homeware, each item selected for its uniqueness and visual strength. “I curate pieces that sit happily together, each one chosen because I genuinely love it myself,” Sam explains. There is a clear refusal to dilute that vision. “I’ve learnt that when I try to appeal to everyone, the magic softens, so I always return to that instinctive place in my mind.”

The result is a space that doesn’t feel formulaic, but is ushered in by people, places and objects that have caught her attention as she wanders this world with the creative eye of a curator. It acts as a focal point and inspiration to encourage visitors to be braver in their own homes.

Polperro’s creative energy permeates the atmosphere of the shop, and in turn, the shop contributes to the village’s growing reputation as an independent retail destination. For customers furnishing a single room or rethinking an entire house, Olive Black Interiors offers something a little unexpected, asking people to make considered choices that can transform everyday living.
