Seasonal Style

Posted by Sophie Posted on 8. November 2008 13:03

Yes winter is finally upon us and as you may know interior trends are highly influenced by the seasons (and change as quickly as they do!). If your as keen as i am with keeping up to date with the latest styles then this season is a fantastic chance to update your look. This winters trends are much bolder and brighter, think natural colours mixed with festive reds and bold blocks of colour against stark contrasting whites. If your keen on updating your home then check out our furniture collection by Antonello who have created a stunning colour range of lacquered furniture. Also have a look at our Conran range of white painted furniture including the design classic Russell Pinch 'Wave' sideboard in white lacquer. If you require further information on any of these pieces then do not hesitate to contact us on 01603 633699.

Joe's Cushions

Posted by Mike Posted on 27. October 2008 16:48

I was very excited to meet local artist Jo Ludbrook recently.  Since moving to Norfolk from Australia Jo has been building on her success 'down there' to gain an enviable reputation here for beautiful and unique cushions.  The designs are very exoctic and often use silks and trimming detail to build layers of colour and texture.  I have them in my shop on display and now available on the site.  Using these cushions to add a jewel like sparkle to a modern design or to build up Moorish rich luxurious interiors.  All these cushions are one off designs hand made by Jo. We can also commission Jo to make up for you in materials of your choice.  If you cant find what you need then try our design department for help on 01603 633699.  Hope you like them.

Conran Glove Chair

Posted by Sophie Posted on 15. October 2008 16:03

We at Interior Selection are pleased to announce the return of the iconic 'Glove' chair by Content by Conran.

Originally released in 2003 with huge publicity and interest , the Glove chair has claimed its place as a design classic due to its recent come back this year. It's relaunch was requested by the public and by Terence Conran himself who regards the Glove as his biggest achievement!

The new Glove chair stays true to its original design, and now available as a stunning monochromatic white gloss shell and black leather upholstery. My belief is to invest in good design and select one off design pieces  you cannot live without, the Glove chair is of no exception, a true conversation piece and my favourite product so far this year!

Happy 50th

Posted by Sophie Posted on 5. September 2008 16:07

For more than 70 years, Louis Poulsen has collaborated with visionary architects and designers producing innovative lighting solutions for buildings internally and externally. In the 1920's their first collaboration (and by no means their last) was with designer Poul Henningsen for the international exhibition for decorative Arts in Paris.  Henningsen won with his multi shade lamp which later became known as the PH Lamp, this lead to a contract to provide lighting for the Forum building in Copenhagen.

There started a perfect partnership: a designer who was the first expert in Light theory, and a lighting manufacturing company at the forefront of lighting technology and materials. In 1958 Henningsen designed the PH Artichoke lighting for the Langeline Pavilion in Copenhagen.

The idea behind such a functional piece of art was to create a glowing atmosphere but still look decorative, the original lights still hang there today. The Artichoke is a 360 degree glare-free luminaire created by 72 leaves that shield the light source, giving a distinct, unique illumination. Considered to be a classical masterpiece the Artichoke celebrates its 50th birthday this year, a great design that can stand the test of time, and will most certainly be around for a good while yet!

ITV 60 minute makeover

Posted by Mike Posted on 30. August 2008 16:15

After a walk on the Brighton beach with the family (and some chips) we arrived to Join the ITV crew filming 60 minute makeover. Interior Selection had been invited to contribute and come along to see the filming. What struck me immediately was the the energy and team spirit of the crew.  It takes a day to setup and film but they are genuinely only working inside for an hour. We delivered a range of Conran furniture including the Russell Pinch sideboard shown with Derek Taylor the shows designer.  For some reason there is a Conran coffee table on top of the sideboard! The scheme was a great success and thethe jobs a good 'un!  The show will be on air soon, I will post the date when I know it.

Welcome to the Interior Selection Blog

Posted by admin Posted on 30. July 2008 22:30

As an Interior designer I have spent an enormous amount of time working with clients to achieve modern harmonious and balanced design schemes striving to create homes that look great and serve their purpose.

In 2000 I opened a showroom in Norwich to display my favorite selections of furniture, lighting and textiles. All the pieces in the range have been tried and tested in real homes by real people and I have been proud of the results. These selections are here because I know they work.

My collection is unashamedly modern but not gimmicky. It is my intention that all these objects last the test of time and become favourite pieces in your home.

The showroom is open to all and our interior design team are always ready with advice and help. We will help you source fabrics for furniture or other soft furnishings and can even recommend paint colours and wallpapers providing an efficient sampling service. Advice is free, it helps us to provide you with a better service so it makes sense all round. I aim to provide great products at great prices with hassle free support backed up with a very personal service.

I hope you like the site and that the blog is of interest.
