To Thrive on Inspiration

Karen

The Oxford dictionary defines inspiration as “The process of being mentally stimulated to do or feel something, especially to do something creative”

Over the past year we have built up a relationship with many suppliers who define their business through inspiration.  Many of these designers have began around the kitchen table, in old sheds or university hallways almost anywhere where inspiration flowed.  The result is nothing short of brilliance.

Bold & Noble, the brainchild of Jane Tobitt and David Wardle, began around the kitchen table.  But late nights and family sacrifices finally brought success to what is now known as a leading brand in screen printing industry.

The same goes for Hayley and Lucas Lepola, a husband and wife team who began the Keep Calm Gallery from the hallways of their university.  What started with a few prints from the two of them soon grew into a site featuring a wide selection of work from some fantastic artists, designers and print makers.

We too know what it is like to start small and grow as we  started in a shed in a back garden and have grown from two to fifteen in just five years.

And so continues so many similar stories of rags to riches.  We feel privileged to have these designs and companies as part of our brand collection and look forward to more unique brands to inspire us all.

Around the world with Bold & Noble

Karen

We love how Bold and Noble used typography to create these gorgeous-looking maps of the UK and Ireland, Australia, New-Zealand, London, France, Italy, Canada and the USA. The colours of these  Type map prints by Bold and Noble are just perfect….right on trend.

Ingeniously charting Anglophone countries with city names written in their correct geographical location, Bold & Noble’s striking maps are a typographic puzzle that stimulate the eye as well as the mind. The U.S., U.K., Australia, New Zealand and a detailed London are each transcribed, with various font weights drawing attention to the major destinations.

• Screen printed onto 250gsm card made from 100% recycled material (off white)
• Lovingly Made in England by Bold and Noble
• Available in sheer slate, duck egg blue, poppy red and deep sea green
• The Type map prints fits into standard frame from Ikea (the RIBBA frame is a good one)

Why we love our brands

Karen

At Dennis and McGregor it is really important to us to not only find brands that are beautiful, but functional too.
Over the past year we have been privileged enough to attract some very influential brands which have been well received by our customers.

A perfect example of this is Stelton, whose products enrich everyday living. Experience the enduring pleasure of a Stelton product crafted with care for you to cherish.

Ferm Living originates from a graphic design agency in Aarhus, Denmark, The company went from being a graphic design agency to a company that today designs and sells lifestyle products.

Newgate specialises in the creation of iconic clocks of all shapes and styles. Their designs are heavily influenced by classic, vintage and retro design of the past and by adding a touch of modernism, these clocks are versatile as they suit both traditional and contemporary style homes..

These brands are just a few among many that we are proud to stock. The impressive quality and uniqueness of each and every product we stock, is the reason why we love our brands.

After twelve years of designing bespoke items for clients, they thought they’d put their skills to work creating affordable designs for peoples’ homes. Artworks that are kind to the environment too, they’re all printed on recycled card and sent out in eco cardboard tubes.

Bold & Noble’s work has been featured internationally in the design & interiors press (Creative Review, Living etc, Elle Decoration, The Observer, Times Style magazine… to name but a few!) and they’ve won industry awards. But most importantly they love being creative with words and pictures.

Love is in the Air

Karen

“Romeo save me I’ve been feeling so alone.

I keep waiting for you but you never come.

Is this in my head?  I don’t know what to think

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said

Marry me Juliet you’ll never have to be alone

I love you and that’s all I really know

I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress

it’s a love story baby just say yes”

(Love Story – Taylor Swift)

Heart shaped chocolates, pretty cards and lots of kisses…………it is no wonder Valentine’s Day is our favourite day.

With some fantastic gift ideas that won’t go unwanted visit Dennis & McGregor and not only will you receive your purchase personally gift wrapped, included will be a decadent box of chocolates to share with that special someone.
