Have you seen our brand new customise your own light range? It’s something that we’ve been working on for a while to really let you visualise your ideal pendant lights. And, what’s more, we are now giving you something that you’ve been requesting for a while…We can fully assemble your chosen 'create your own' pendant light design before sending it out to you! How’s that for service? This fully customisable feature has been one of James' dreams for a long time. As an incredibly visual person, he wanted to show you how your chosen components would look fully assembled. This…

And how to incorporate the must have colours into your home I'm literally always on the look out for inspiration and ideas to keep my home looking fresh and on-trend. In my quest (it's my job to scroll through social media looking at this stuff honest!) I decided to have a little look around at interior colour trends for 2017... What are the must have colours and how should I be using them. What's happening right now, and how's that going to develop through the year. Here's a round-up of the colours we absolutely can't live without! Mushroom Rug: La…

Our exclusive range is a result of a collaboration between ourselves and Hicks & Weatherburn, the longest standing paint manufacturer in Leeds. We curated the colours we felt would be both on-trend and that would work together really well. (more…)

You may already know all about our bare bulbs collection...but did you also know that we now have a Hip Hardware range featuring industrial style furniture handles, kitchen door handles & kitchen drawer knobs? I know, I know, when you think of hardware the word hip doesn’t automatically spring to mind. To me it conjures up memories of being dragged to look at drill bits and bricks with my Dad every weekend. I was dubious to say the least. In fact, the very definition of hardware is ‘tools, machinery, and other durable equipment’, again not so appealing. That being said,…

When it comes to interiors there's nothing I like more (apart from shopping for my favourite piece) is to discover the upcoming trends for the season ahead. I love discovering new patterns and colours, not to mention what the textures are going to be. Plus it gives me lots of time to save for my next purchase, just don't tell the other half! One trend in particular that caught my eye this year is the 'weathered' or 'raw materials' trend. Each forecasting company gives this theme a different name, but essentially they all draw from the same inspiration; raw materials. This mesmerising…
