Junior Officers’ Reading Club

Topping the summer reading lists in one of our designs. Perhaps this success is more down to the content than the cover, but even so we’re delighted that sales are booming. Junior Officers’ Reading Club is up there, here is the BBC Newsnight review if you’re keen to know more.

Quirky and classic

‘Recycled’ and ’stylish’ don’t always go hand in hand. But Berlin based Schubladen have hit the nail on the head with their unique furniture. They reuse drawers from defunct furniture and incorporate them into new bodies. What a great idea, rescuing them from the scrap heap and giving them another bite of the cherry, albeit with a little nose job along the way. They may be too much of a mix match for some, but I think they’re fun and über stylish.

Country Living July 09

Way back in January, Caroline from Country Living asked if we’d like to show our ‘Birds and Trees around Britain’ prints in an eco homeware feature for their July issue. Yes, they really do work that far ahead and what a long wait it has been, but we’re chuffed with the results.

Everything in this Victorian house is green in some way or another, be it recycled, salvaged, British made, sustainably sourced, the list goes on. If you’re that way inclined it is worth a peek.

Kids Modern

A big thanks to Kids Modern, we had a fun and fruitful day at the design show at Dulwich College yesterday.

There were some really innovative designs, especially the punch’n'cuddle dolls, it was brilliant watching the little ones rush in and immediately pounce on this mad weeble like object (www.punchncuddle.com). We were really impressed with the ‘billy rocker’ stall too, partly because he was pretty much running a shop come nursery but mainly because of the brilliant product. A simple flat pack three piece rocking horse, constructed of cardboard, so you can create your own rocking horse, monster, scribble, anything goes and all for £28 (www.mr-kaliski.com). We bought one for little Wilf, though he’ll probably just want to eat it at the moment.
