At Home With Emma Gurner - Colour & Style in North London
May 20, 2016This week we want to introduce you to one of our favourite interior designers Emma Gurner.
We had the pleasure of working with Emma, when she hosted an Open House in her North London home, featuring our rugs and cushions from the Eko Eclipse collection. I instantly fell in love with her Edwardian house, which she transformed into a style haven, consisting of bold colours, patterns and statement pieces, combined with a clean and structured style to leave room to observe and appreciate the space.

Rose Quartz Interiors: Pantone's 2016 Colour of the Year
Mar 11, 2016Don’t we all love a bit of pink? What greater year to fully live this soft hue than 2016, as we are officially ‘pink’ this year. Pantone, the world-renowned authority on colour and provider of colour systems announced Rose Quartz as the colours of the year!
Rose Quartz is a persuasive yet gentle tone that conveys compassion and a sense of composure. It carries a soft feminine energy and is believed to have a distinctive calming and soothing effect. When used in interiors, rose quartz brings a feeling of relaxation into the home environment and adds an element of chic and elegance to its surroundings.
Your Dream Walk-In Wardrobe
Jan 11, 2016Let’s face it. Every girl needs something to wear. But the so-called ‘something to wear’ can range from a basic wardrobe of essentials to a conglomeration of skinny jeans, wide leg jeans, pencil skirts, maxi dresses, cute flats, cool trainers, stilettos, necklaces, bracelets, bangles, bags, belts, scarves…you name it!
The dilemma is, the more clothes a girl owns, the more space she needs to store them in. You all know the scenario. The wardrobe is filled from top to bottom with items that sometimes still have the price tag on and pieces you have not worn since the last big clear out two years ago.
But there is a way out ladies: the walk-in-closet. It may be a dream for many, but I believe in dreams coming true!
