Hicks was born on 18 July 1963, in King’s College Hospital in Denmark Hill, London. He is the son and second child of David and Lady Pamela Hicks. He is the younger brother of Edwina Brudenell and the older brother of India Hicks, author, television host, fashion model, and founder of her eponymous lifestyle brand.
In 1997, Hicks began designing furniture at the Gem Palace in Jaipur, India. His first piece was his interpretation of a Greek Klismos chair, based on a 1920s drawing by an architect. The chair is rendered in Burmese teak, with a seat made of interwoven straps of saddle leather. He describes the chair as “far more like the ancient Greek ones in its construction, than the Neoclassical revivals”. When Hicks initially designed in India, he designed under the moniker of “Jantar Mantar”. Hicks explains, “It means abracadabra, also hocus pocus, and is local slang for the Jaipur Observatory.”
In addition to interior and furniture design, Hicks produces various lines of fabric, wallpaper, and carpeting—some under the “David Hicks by Ashley Hicks” brand and others under his own name. Licences to his fabric and wallpaper collections are held by GP & J Baker; the licences to his carpeting lines are held by Stark and Alternative Flooring. In 2002, along with his ex-wife Allegra, he wrote Design Alchemy, which provided an overview of the interiors and products they designed. Hicks also produced a series of Allegra Hicks shops as well as a collection of home accessories that were sold in these shops. In 2017, Hicks published his first book on his own work, Details, which also serves as a source book for his inspiration; published by IDEA Publishing, it sold out within a month.
