Unless you've been living on the moon, it's likely you're aware that leather is a HUGE trend right now. From raw hide to vegan leather (pleather) and everything in-between, there are some amazing pieces to bestow right now. Soft, smooth and buttery, textured or embossed, woven, plaited, gathered, studded - from the catwalk to interiors, we can't get enough of it!

LEATHER LOOK  – FRIEND OR FAUX? Leather – the material of the moment. Having taken the catwalk by storm, it’s making serious waves interiors-wise that go way beyond the stain-proof dining chair. You herd it here first, folks… From raw hide to vegan leather (and everything in-between), there really are some amazing pieces to discover. […]

Introducing artists' coffee table books into your interior scheme is a relatively inexpensive way of showcasing art - who says it should be limited to the walls?

THE ULTIMATE COFFEE TABLE BOOK EDIT

29th October 2019 , 4 Comments

Hands up if you’re a collector? Of art, vintage bags, blue and white ceramics, vinyl records? Whilst I confess to being an accumulator of many, MANY things, the coffee table book is my primary penchant. I love words. I adore images. Coffee table books combine, so artfully, both these areas.

YOUR (WELL-STUFFED) SPRING / SUMMER CUSHION EDIT

4th March 2018 , 7 Comments

Cushions – they just make everything better, don’t they?

In truth, cushions are a fundamental part of my work – and life! Comfy, stylish and an easy (and relatively […]

Colour Trend: Purple Reign. Pantone’s announcement that Ultra Violet would be the colour of 2018 did not come as a total shock to me. Whilst I personally find this shade is a little brash and gaudy, purple has been gaining popularity for some time now. Unashamedly ‘70s – Prince would be proud - Pantone’s select hue also has a space-age, futuristic feel which seems totally relevant at this juncture.
