SUPER TEXTURE<br />

This Spring sees us delving deeper into Super Texture – the name that we gave to our first collection<br />

of textiles. Continuing our exploration into the construction of cloth we dive deep into the weave,<br />

the knits and the knots, we add colour and extra texture, and we start some adventures in print, in<br />

embroidery and in the hand tufting and looping of wool.<br />

ABSTRACT<br />

Abstract is the name we are<br />

giving a pair of cushions made<br />

using techniques from the rug<br />

and carpet industries. Thick,<br />

woolly, harder wearing and<br />

generally more substantial than<br />

most cushions these are hand<br />

tufted by extraordinarily skilled<br />

craftsmen.<br />

PAINT<br />

Paint is a set of cushions with<br />

a subtle painterly print of<br />

abstracted urban landscapes<br />

rendered onto super soft<br />

linen mix. We commissioned<br />

a young artist to create a set<br />

of abstracted architectural<br />

watercolours based on scenes<br />

of British urbanism.<br />

SOFT<br />

Two new colours – Wine and<br />

Khaki join our Soft range this<br />

season. This series of cushions<br />

fashioned by Dutch weavers is<br />

composed of rare South-African<br />

Angora goat hair historically<br />

said to be as valuable as gold<br />

itself. Combined with European<br />

craftsmanship and a generous<br />

filling of Danish duck feathers<br />

this range offers superior pile<br />

height, durability, and the<br />

ultimate indulgence in comfort<br />

and texture.<br />

Soft Cushion Pink, Wine,<br />

Khaki and Ochre<br />

BOUCLE<br />

Khaki and Electric Blue are<br />

our latest to the Boucle colour<br />

palette. We’ve made our blue<br />

more electric, intense and<br />

vibrant. We have also added a<br />

military inspired khaki – a colour<br />

that has the odd characteristics<br />

of acting either as a neutral or<br />

a highlight. Uncompromising<br />

in quality, Boucle is composed<br />

of hand-spun, hand-woven<br />

yarn, loomed by hand in the<br />

remote mountainous region of<br />

Rajasthan with wool sourced<br />

from New Zealand.<br />

monochromatic that packs a<br />

graphic punch.<br />

MATERIALISM<br />

Materiality is an underlying theme in all our work, from the rawness of cast metals and precious<br />

stone to the surface possibilities of vacuum metalised plastics or the malleable quality of<br />

molten glass. Materialism gives an extra tactile dimension to the objects we mould, carve and cast,<br />

creating a synergy between container and scent in Cork, Terrazzo, Stone, Alloy and Oil.<br />

TERRAZZO<br />

Weighty, rounded and satisfying<br />

to touch, Terrazzo is a fitting<br />

new member of the Materialism<br />

family – a substantial container<br />

for this fresh Mediterranean<br />

scent.<br />

CORK<br />

An unconventional scent of<br />

burnt sugar and smoky wood<br />

permeates a raw cork vessel,<br />

stamped with the mark of its<br />

maker.


PASTAIO<br />

Located in London’s Soho, Pastaio is the latest restaurant from the Stevie Parle and Design Research Studio<br />

team. The 70 seat pasta restaurant in Soho’s Ganton Street pairs a clean backdrop of industrial materials<br />

and a single bold wall mural. An informal dining experience, that nods towards the Italian menu with the<br />

pastaio on show, terrazzo surfaces and colours that pop.<br />

STONE GIFTSET<br />

This heavyweight giftset of<br />

six Stone candles showcases<br />

a colour spectrum of exotic<br />

marbles. Turned on lathes by<br />

skilled engineers in India each<br />

rocky, rounded heavyweight<br />

container is unique due to the<br />

particularities of the individual<br />

block of marble. This forms<br />

the optimum vessel for the<br />

dry exotic fig and sandalwood<br />

essence of our Stone scent<br />

collection.<br />

ECLECTIC<br />

There are a series of intangibles that can be just as important in interior-design as colour,<br />

luminosity and shape. Often, the most potent first impression and subsequent memory<br />

of a space can be its smell. The Eclectic family of Tom Dixon scents are each contained in a<br />

corresponding Brass, Copper and Stainless-Steel hand-spun vessel.<br />

ORIENTALISM<br />

Orientalist captures the faint<br />

memory of an Indian wedding<br />

with rose petal garlands, giant<br />

cinnamon sticks on beach stalls<br />

and the musky smells of the<br />

Chinese herbal market.<br />

ROYALTY<br />

Royalty is a reminiscence of tea<br />

time with a pot of Earl Grey,<br />

scones, strawberry jam and<br />

the drive home in a ‘52 Bentley<br />

with tatty leather seats.<br />

London Diffuser<br />

London captures the smell of<br />

red brick and London parks<br />

the salty smell of the Thames<br />

PLANT<br />

The double headed vase designed for the curation of floral arrangements and micro ecosystems.<br />

Mouthblown, each vase varies in shape, size and thickness of glass to create a truly unique vessel.<br />

HOW TO<br />

1. Clean the inside of the vessel to ensure there’s no<br />

residue that could harm the plant.<br />

2. Fill the bottom of the vessel with a 1½ inch layer of<br />

small rocks to collect the water drainage.<br />

3. Add a layer of potting soil made for succulents. It<br />

should be deep enough for the plants to root to, so<br />

roughly 2½ inches.<br />

4. Remove the largest plant from its container and<br />

dust excess soil off the roots. You may want to<br />

trim the roots, so they aren’t too long.<br />

5. Using a long-stemmed implement, make a hole in the<br />

soil for the roots and nestle the plant inside. Then pat<br />

the soil down firmly to hold the plant in place.<br />

6. Plan for approximately 1 plant per inch of<br />

container diameter.<br />

7. Continue placing the smaller plants using this<br />

method, trying to keep them away from the edges.<br />

8. Clean off any excess soil around the glass of the<br />

container and add a small amount of water.


SPIN<br />

An industrial-strength piece of table-top engineering designed to act as a kinetic centrepiece and<br />

produce infinite arrangements. Able to hold tea lights and taper candles with equal elegance,<br />

the cast iron contraption takes cues from the heavyweight cantilever mechanisms of dockside<br />

cranes and the mechanical elegance of 1950s mobiles.<br />
