Welsh Colour Palette

I recently went on a holiday to the coast of Wales where there are some of the most stunning coastal views. I was shocked to find this little snippet of colour which I thought would make a great colour palette.  Rich blue, mossy grey green, bright mustard yellow, natural stone and soft lavender.  See this and other photographs on our Inspiration page.

Noma Bar posters

Look very closely at each of these.  There’s an optical illusion at work in each. Clever clocks.

Made a Mano.

Made a Mano creates lava stone, also known as basalt, tiles with patterns that are based on ancient templates and with colour that is applied by hand.  They are absolutely stunning.  In London, Made a Mano can be found at the Tom Dixon showroom.  They also make equally beautiful countertops and sinks.
