AS NATURE INTENDED
Celebrated Danish architect Mette Lange showcases her talent for creating serene, natural-material homes in her first book, Earth, Sky & Water. Structured into three parts – By the Water, In the Forest, and In the Countryside – the book dives into the philosophy behind 13 of her projects through engaging narratives and evocative photography. Lange’s approach includes camping on-site to connect deeply with each setting. The volume also highlights her socially responsible projects in India, such as schools for migrant workers’ children. Prepare to be inspired.

DECORATE WILDLY
Divine Savages’ latest wallcovering collection, Where The Wildflowers Grow celebrates the unsung beauty of wild growing blooms scattered across our countryside. Part of the brand’s Rewilding range, the eco wallpaper is crafted from 79 per cent renewable fibres, skips the polyester, and cuts down on greenhouse gases by an impressive 30 per cent compared to other papers. The wildflower motifs also spring up across lush cushions, custom-sized velvet fringed lampshades, and both recycled velvet and linen fabrics available by the metre, perfect for bespoke décor touches.

Featuring tablecloths, napkins, runners, coasters, and aprons all crafted from 100 per cent European linen, each piece is playfully picnic-inspired, from the gingham patterned backgrounds, to the delicately embroidered hard-boiled eggs and sliced lemons.
