Julie Dodsworth’s wonderfully English designs are inspired by her time spent on British canals watching the beautifully painted boats go by. Her colourful, floral designs delightfully depict real English heritage and are available on a range of different products on her website and in stores throughout the country. We’re huge fans of her unique blend of modern kitsch and traditional British design.

Elle Design Trend Forecast 2010

by ·1 Comment

Elle has nailed its colours to the mast and revealed the hot trends for 2010. The design shows from Milan, New York, Tokyo and of course London were flooded with products shot through with happiness and colour. Long may it continue we say.

Here’s the trends for the forthcoming year.

  • Illusion and Fantasy, think surrealist furniture and accessories, Lord of the Rings meets sofas…
  • Folding and Pleating, we have a brand new product out shortly that echoes this trend. Watch this space!
  • Handcrafted details, embellishments, stitching and embroidery give items a homely and personal feel.
  • Honeycomb patterns are going to be big, hexagons will be everywhere.
  • Turquoise, this is of course the Pantone colour of the Year, see our previous blog post with our great selection of turquoise blinds.
