Eleanor Pritchard
Do point your cursor towards the wonderful designs — woven into woollen blankets and cushions — produced by Eleanor Pritchard, particularly if you are drawn to mid-century style. Three of our favourites are below.
Cole & Son
The venerable English firm Cole & Son, established in 1875, continue to produce wallpapers which please the discerning eye.
A hat tip is due to Anouska Tamony for reminding us of their beautiful designs; these examples are all from the Contemporary Restyled range.
Anouska Tamony Designs
The wonders of social media — Instagram, specifically — led to my recently meeting Anouska Tamony, founder of her eponymous London design studio.
Anouska’s style “combines modern and antique influences with architectural detail and bohemian flair” .. take a look at her website and Instagram page — her thoughtful reflections on establishing and growing a business (containing generous reference to Trim) are also worth reading.
As fellow south Londoners, we hope Anouska’s studio calls for skilled painters and decorators in future.
All the best for 2016, Anouska!
Timorous Beasties Fabric
Timorous Beasties caught our eye this morning with their wonderful and typically richly detailed Topical Tropical fabric, shown below.
London-based painters and decorators, designers and homeowners can pay a visit to the TB shop on Amwell Street; the mothership is in the west end of Glasgow — details for both are here.
Serge Mouille 6 arm ceiling light
Serge Mouille (1922-1988) left behind some striking and distinctive light fixture designs.
We installed one recently, and were impressed with the poise of its extraordinary 9-ft span.
As the great man wisely said, “The form is always determined by the material”.
