Discover five of our favourite items to launch this week.
This week’s Top 5 hones in on our new homeware collection and our first favourite from creative studio Tom Pigeon, displays how the best type of art allows you to enter it from a variety of angles and to emerge from it with a variety of views. ‘Shipwreck’ is a collection of three inter-connecting screen prints; Flotsam, Jetsam and Lagan, and is inspired by beachcombing – exploring the rhythm, colour and shapes of the natural and man-made objects washed up on the shores of the Scottish seaside.
