Competition: win one of a selection of limited-edition prizes when you pre-order A Modern Way to Live
The Modern House merino wool blanket, woven with a custom check print, is our take on a sofa-side staple. The reversible pattern was inspired by the use of hand-drawn lines to create shade, tone and texture in architectural diagrams. The blanket was woven exclusively for The Modern House by makers in Bristol.
The limited-edition city tote is made in collaboration with British clothing label Folk. The bag embodies our shared values of good, simple design, functional beauty and quality, responsible craftsmanship. Applying the care and attention of an artisan maker, Folk have worked with a Somerset leather factory to craft a small batch of the bags, and used deadstock fabrics in its production.
The Barn Bird linocut print has been hand-cut and printed in the studio of Toogood, the namesake design practice of Faye Toogood. The print exemplifies Toogood’s love of design and craftsmanship and looks beautiful framed in the home. It is of a limited edition of 100.
