Beauty And The Beastie, Timorous Beasties!

By Therelishedroost
Well, I think we all enjoyed the much anticipated Season 4 Return of Downton Abbey last night!  Everyone is still up to their old tricks, etc! I have now also become hooked on  Master Piece Theater's "Sherlock"!  The characters are witty and wicked at the same time and the set design is truly unique! I found myself searching the the web the other night in hopes to find the wall covering in Character Irene Adler's wonderful flat, and I did!  It was by none other than Timorous Beasties! I should have known from the bold print and intriguing pattern.  I have long been a fan and wish that I had the guts to use their coverings in my own home.. if I could just sneak if past the hubby! Hopefully soon I will pull the trigger or find a really cool avant garde client who will actually let me just go for it ! Also, the company does more than wall coverings! Check out the fabric, pillows, lampshades and rugs!
If you are not familiar with Timorous Beasties, the company was started by two cleverly talented men, Alistair McAuley and Paul Simmons. The two met as they attended Glasgow School Of the Arts, and the rest is history!
Timorous Beasties opened their first retail shop in 2004 on the Great Western Road in Glasgow and a second shop in central London in 2007. In addition they have collaborated with brands such as Brintons Carpets, Nike and Famous Grouse. In 2011 they produced a bespoke collection of cushions for John Lewis Department Stores, an exclusive range of textiles and home accessories for Liberty of London and home accessories for the newly refurbished National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh. - See more at: Timorous Beasties!
