Here, beauty is appreciated for itself, no matter where or what period it comes from – a market stall or thrift shop approach to living and decorating.

It is an eclectic and creative collection of self expression – an individual and informal response to so much of today’s mass production and standardisation. Overall the mood is happy, confident and whimsical – a funky image of contemporary living for the young at heart.

The overwhelming mood is bohemian, mixing ultra large and extra tiny patterns in a selection of shades that complement one another in an offbeat way without looking too over-designed or considered. This casual attitude to mixing and matching patterns, colours or objects is what lends this story its endearing charm. This unashamed humour defies a traditional take on style.

The palette is composed of an eclectic mix of pinks, reds and greens that are neither too formal nor too frivolous. Colours are harmonious but mixed in unexpected ways. Scale, pattern and colour are all used in a carefree way that is both charming and lively – life’s a party!
