Foreword
Foreword

"In a world filled with drama, tension and noise, we choose to be inspired by a more natural, homemade and minimalist lifestyle.

Classic nordic principles balancing old and new, modern and rustic. Our books have been chosen to inspire others to do the same."

Our Guiding Principles

HOME
The home embodies the sole of an individual. It gives character and personality to your self-expression and provides a place of sanctuary, somewhere to reset, somewhere for family and friends to feel safe.
NATURE
We are the only ones responsible for the outcome of our species, we are also the only ones who can choose the impact we have on the world around us.
There is nothing natural about the modern world, but nature provides us with everything we need in abundance, it’s our responsibility to protect it, to call upon it for inspiration and there is comfort in the natural landscape forming part of who we are and how we live.
CRAFT
We value the makers and creators over machine-made or mass production. The beauty and unique nature of something handmade can not be replicated by machine. A machine can make perfection, but it can’t replicate the heart and soul of an artist.
OLD & NEW
”New” is an unavoidable and inevitable fact of modern life, but balance this with “Old” and you create a timeless aesthetic and lifestyle that transcends seasonal or temporary trends.

Supper

Flora Shedden

Whether you call it Supper, Dinner, Tea or something else altogether, Flora has inspired us to rethink our approach to eating as a family in the evenings.

It's an event, a time for family to get together, it doesn't need to be a polished michelin-star level meal, it can be messy, it can simply be a delicious hearty home-cooked or ordered-in meal.

The important thing is to make sure it happens.
