September stories.

September 15, 2023

The start of September always ushers in a raft of emails in my inbox, showcasing the new season collections from some of my favourite design brands. While I don’t believe anyone needs to be updating their home decor on a yearly – let alone seasonal – basis, I’m always excited to see new lifestyle imagery from the brands whose designs I’m always most drawn to; to gain inspiration for new ways of arranging my home, new colours I might like

I always love to see how the creative and unique approaches design companies take in sharing their brand philosophy with their customers.

French design brand Ligne Roset celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Togo chair this summer. Characterised by its distinct curvature and sunken profile, the structureless Togo sofa has a crumbled silhouette reminiscent of a tube of toothpaste folded back on itself, and emphatically captures my love for relaxed yet refined interior decor.
