Everything Our Interiors Editor Is Loving Right Now
THE CLEVER TILE:
Baked Tiles
Baked Tiles, the sister brand to Ca’ Pietra, has added two new designs to its popular Country House collection. Country House Herringbone and Country House Cobbles are made from porcelain but cleverly pre-scored to create the look of individually laid flooring once grouted. The softly aged mix of straw, cream and fawn tones, gently tumbled edges and subtle surface variation give them the warmth of traditional stone, while the 60 x 40cm format makes them easier to lay. The result? A characterful floor with considerably less faff.

THE STAIN COLLECTION:
Atelier Ellis
Atelier Ellis has just launched its first collection of stains and it’s a clever way to add colour and character to unfinished surfaces. Available in 32 shades, the mineral, water-based formula can be used on wood, stone, concrete and plaster, allowing the natural grain and texture to show through. I love the depth of the colour palette, from soft blues such as Seven Sisters to richer shades including Yew, Sangiovese and Still Life With Bottles. It’s an easy way to give furniture or architectural details a more considered finish, without disguising the material underneath.

THE STATEMENT SOFA:
Méris by Monica Armani for Case Furniture
The new Méris collection by Italian architect Monica Armani is inspired by the quiet movement of the sea. Defined by soft curves, generous proportions and a wraparound back, it has a beautifully cocooning feel without looking bulky. The range includes two- and three-seater sofas, a sectional, armchair and ottoman, all available in a choice of upholstery. I particularly like the way the continuous form gives it a sculptural quality, while the deep, supportive seating makes it feel genuinely inviting.

THE SLEEP ESSENTIALS:
Floks
Yorkshire sleep brand Floks is celebrating its fifth anniversary with a fresh rebrand, an expanded collection and its first bed, made in collaboration with fellow Yorkshire furniture makers Honest. But it’s the smaller sleep essentials I’m most interested in. The wool-filled eye mask is made with traceable British wool, natural hemp and organic cotton, while the bed linen c ombines the softness of organic cotton with the breathability and durability of hemp. Together, they create a beautifully tactile, natural sleep environment. The new Honest x FLOKS oak bed, handcrafted in Yorkshire, completes the collection with a simple spindle design made to last.

THE HARDWARE EDIT:
Plank Hardware X Good Bones
Following the success of their lighting collaboration, Plank Hardware and Good Bones have launched a new cabinetry hardware collection. The six petite designs include handles, pulls, a knob and a star backplate, all defined by softly rounded ends and deliberately dainty proportions. Available in unlacquered brass, polished nickel and a new blackened bronze, they’re designed to be mixed rather than matched, creating the kind of collected-over-time look I love. Inspired by the decorative hardware Leanne’s father sourced for his Boston furniture store, Danish Country, these are small details with plenty of character.

THE FABRIC RANGE:
Haines Collection’s Classic Collection
The Classic Collection is Jules Haines’ first fabric range for Haines Collection, bringing together four archive-inspired patterns in five colourways. What makes it particularly interesting is that each design is printed to order onto surplus natural linen and linen-cotton fabrics, giving existing materials a fresh purpose rather than producing new cloth for the collection. It feels like a more thoughtful way to approach pattern and production, while raising an important question: could surplus fabrics become a design resource in their own right? These are beautiful, characterful textiles with a story woven into them from the start.

THE CANE FURNITURE:
Alice Crawley
I’m increasingly drawn to the lightness and nostalgia of vintage cane furniture and Alice Crawley’s collection has plenty to love – think cane bar stools, trays and side tables, often paired with colourful striped cushions or playful fabric details. There’s a sense of informality to the pieces, whether used in a garden room, kitchen corner or relaxed sitting room. The hand-woven Trellis Chest instantly caught my eye – it combines practical storage with artisanal craftsmanship, adding character without feeling too formal.

THE RUG COLLAB:
Jessica Osborne x Bombay Sprout
Jessica Osborne has taken three of her signature fabric designs from upholstery to floor in a new collection with Bombay Sprout. Monty, Etta and Etta Cross span 14 flatweave and jute rugs, alongside four runners, with options ranging from quietly neutral to beautifully colourful. Monty reworks the familiar chequerboard into a playful geometric, while Etta draws on antique darning samplers and Etta Cross introduces a patchwork-inspired pattern of repeating motifs. I love the way each feels decorative without being overly formal, bringing colour, texture and a sense of handcraft underfoot.

THE DESIGNER COLLECTION:
West Elm x Pierce & Ward
West Elm has just launched its second collection with LA design duo Pierce & Ward, and it’s all about embracing a more layered approach to interiors. Expect rich colour, tactile fabrics, bold pattern and mid-century-inspired silhouettes across furniture, lighting and accessories. My standout piece is the burl wood dining table, which combines a richly grained checkerboard veneer top with tapered V-shaped legs. It has the feel of a vintage find but enough presence to anchor a contemporary dining room. The collection is a lovely reminder that homes feel more interesting when everything doesn’t match too perfectly.

THE UPHOLSTERY COLLAB:
The House Upstairs x Sean Symington
The House Upstairs has teamed up with designer Sean Symington on two new pieces: the Penny Sofa and matching Penny Ottoman. Rooted in classic English design, the sofa has a fixed back and hand-cut scalloped skirt, a detail echoed on the ottoman. Both are handmade to order in the brand’s Derbyshire workshop, where master upholsterers shape each frame and carefully cut every scallop by hand. I love the way the detailing gives these traditionally shaped pieces a softer, more decorative feel – but they’re still versatile enough to work in both classic and contemporary homes.
