Thrilled to see "Mythical Land" on the walls at Lime Wood. This 5* luxury hotel & spa in the New Forest has just had the Susie Atkinson treatment and is looking fabulous!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Thanks to @dynarghdesign for sharing pics of this lounge area papered in my "Verdure" wallpaper for @zoffanyfw. It's a treat to see this Lead Blue colourway used in such a sophisticated setting. (I love the upholstery in the 4th pic.) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Another little sneak peek of some more of the public areas for our recent project @beadnell_towers - this is the lounge area which will be uses for morning coffee, afternoon tea, pre and post dinner drinks and private functions. Completely in love with how this room has come together. The beautiful wallpaper from @melissawhiteuk @stylelibrarycontract makes a huge impact. And our long term followers will know how we love to dress a good old bookcase 😊#dynarghdesign #design #interiors #interiordesign #interiordesigner #interiordesignersofinsta #hoteldesign #hoteldesigner #hospitalitydesign #prouddesigner #busydesigner #busydesignstudio #norestforthedriven #boutiquehotel #beadnelltowers #prouddesigner #lovewhatyoudo #northumberland #visitnorthumberland #newhotel #newhotelopening

Nice bit of piping on this gorgeous sofa by Thompson Clark Interiors. The fabric is "Rococo", one of my designs for @lewisandwood. This velvet has the most luxurious "teddy bear" softness. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

This is one of the Elizabethan painted cloths we created for Shakespeare's Birthplace Museum back in 2000.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This striking grotesque is an accurate reproduction of a 16th century wall painting in Oxford. The original is well preserved in what was a tavern that Shakespeare frequented. Now it's a Pizza Express so anyone can scrutinise this over a thin crust marguerita! 🍕

Love how jewellery designer Solange Azagury-Partridge has used my Verdure wallpaper in a massive frame in this opulent room
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It's a great way of using large repeat scenic wallpapers without committing to a whole wall.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Solange's fabulous bijou West Country bolthole featured recently in the @telegraph Magazine.

Leonardslee Lakes & Gardens near Horsham, West Sussex.

Insanely romantic! I'd underestimated how exquisite azaleas are especially en masse and in full bloom...oh and wallabies too...but they're harder to photograph! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
(An indulgent trip last week with ma chere maman) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

I'm at my studio this week painting more of these fresco secco panels for Bergdorf Goodman. Fun scenes are inspired by American folk art. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

#throwbackthursday Thanks to the ever inspiring @jofairley for sharing this gorgeous shot with a fresco secco I painted in 2006 (crikey!) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It’s such a treat to see how my paintings have become part of their owner’s decorative aesthetic. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This Delft-y design was inspired by a late 18th Century blue resist print. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
