I have also come across Marimenko which also have a boutique in St. Christophers Place in London. They produce some beautiful fabrics I really am a fan of them and wanted to share them with you

Marimekko - eventful, colourful and creative fabrics since 1951

Viljo and Armi Ratia started the Finnish textile Company Marimekko in May 1951. The Company had its prime time during the sixties and the seventies, but is even more popular after their re-introduction of a collection of their classic textile patterns, which they presented at the Company’s fiftieth anniversary in 2001.

Marimekko is well known for its printed cotton textiles in beautiful patterns and colours, such as Hetkiä and Kaiku, but also for the special Marimekko clothes made only by cotton. Several well known Finnish designers are working and have been working for Marimekko; Maija Isola, Vuokko Eskolin-Nurmesniemi, Annika Rimala and Fujiwo Ishimoto are maybe the most famous.

Nuppu fabric - pink

In the Nuppu fabric, details of city life can be discerned like the flowing hair of people hurrying along the street. Design Maija Louekari.

£34.92

There are so many catagories on the website from bedroom to furniture lighting and textiles be sure to check them all out for some great inspiration.

I really do love this light it reminds me of a hum bug sweet its great!!

PXL pendant - multicolored

The lamp PXL, designed by Fredrik Mattson, has attracted a lot of attention and can truly be called eye candy.

The designer's own words:
"The traditional archetype of a lamp form is sliced up and transformed into rings. The result resembles a bit of a 3-D "low-resolution object" with its pixel and edgy character."
