Eleanor is yet another creative mind joining Team Figgies. In her spare time she can be found in her home studio painting away, inspired by interior design and “things that are both functional and beautiful”. Having studied fine art, she has a very keen eye for design, and wanted to share her Top 3 Picks for a calming living space.
No.1 Japanese Prints To Bring Calm Into Your Home
As a painter herself, Eleanor knows a good print when she sees one, and chose this beautiful Dybdahl Co Ukiyo-e woodblock print, with its calming aura that fits perfectly in her bedroom at home. Ukiyo-e is all about depicting scenes from everyday Japanese life, and as someone that creates artwork of interior scenes, we can see why she’s drawn to it!
With a wide range of Dybdahl Co prints available both in-store and online, you can be sure to find the perfect splash of colourful calm for your interior.
No. 2 Bloomingville Serina Mug – Oh So Stripy!
We all know too well how hard it is to find the elusive perfect mug, but Eleanor has managed to find hers – the bold and stylish Serina Mug by Bloomingville. She’s never without a peppermint tea in hand, and this super tactile mug is the perfect vessel with its joyful round shape and bold stripes.
Mix and match with the rest of our range of organic glaze mugs from Bloomingville for a tea time worth savouring.
No. 3 Purity Jade Cushion from Present Time
Continuing the theme of tactility, Eleanor chose the delightfully soft Purity Cushion from Dutch company Present Time. With its high-pile cotton texture and gentle green colour, its ideal for cuddling up with on the sofa after a long day – or in Eleanor’s case, it may make the perfect model for one of her paintings!
Its jade block colour is complimentary to many of our other neutral and earth tone soft furnishings.
