Studio Sourcebook: Victor Pasmore⁠ ⁠ Victor Pasmore (1908–1998) was a British artist renowned for his pioneering role in the development of abstract art in Britain. Initially recognised for his landscape paintings, he transitioned to abstract works in the 1940s. "View to the Thames" was painted in the mid 1940s and forms part of a series of riverscapes he made whilst living at 16 Hammersmith Terrace from 1943-47.

New Collection⁠ – Colour Capsule Vol.2 – Frieze Limestone⁠ ⁠⁠ We are pleased to announce the launch of our second capsule colour collection, featuring a new pattern and two new block colours. ⁠ ⁠ Influential architect and designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s idiosyncratic balance of decorative geometric motifs with organic, floral references informs this collection’s new mosaic-style pattern, Frieze, which is available in Limestone, Brick and Clove colourways. The colour palette is also inspired by the work of pioneering mid-century textile designer, Lucienne Day.⁠ ⁠⁠ Head to the link in our bio to see the full collection.⁠ ⁠ Photographed by @kim.lightbody_photography⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ ⁠ #palefire #palefirestudio #contemporarylighting #sculpturallighting #lightingdesign #paperpulp #sustainabledesign #interiordecor #interiordesign #handmade #eclecticinterior #pendant #residentiallighting #objectdesign #lampdesign #mouldedpaperpulp⁠ #colourfullighting #unusuallighting #artisticlighting #sustainablelighting #uniquelighting #statementlighting #decorativelighting

Studio Sourcebook: Studio Strato ⁠ ⁠ Strato is an architecture and interiors studio based in Rome, led by designers Vincenzo Tattolo and Martino Fraschetti. ⁠For this top floor apartment in Rome, the studio evoked the feeling of a Mediterranean summer holiday using block colours on ceilings, floors and door archways to bring a vibrancy to the airy interiors.⁠ ⁠ We particularly love the 'Tivoli' blue that envelopes the bedroom from the floor to the ceiling, with a marigold coloured bed bringing warmth to the room. ⁠ ⁠ Photography c/o Studio Strato ⁠via @remodelista⁠ .⁠

The Parasol in Clove⁠ ⁠ The paper-pulp moulded forms of our lamps are hand-painted by our small team in our South London studio, and then assembled and wired with a cord in-line switch by an electrician. They are then sent back to us so we can check the final finished piece before sending them on to their new homes. ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ #palefire #palefirestudio #contemporarylighting #sculpturallighting #lightingdesign #paperpulp #sustainabledesign #interiordecor #interiordesign #handmade #eclecticinterior #pendant #residentiallighting #objectdesign #lightingdesign #lampdesign #mouldedpaperpulp⁠ #colourfullighting #unusuallighting #artisticlighting #sustainablelighting #uniquelighting #statementlighting #decorativelighting

Studio Sourcebook: Lucienne Day's silk mosaics⁠ ⁠ Lucienne Day (1917–2010) was a British textile designer know for her vibrant, modernist patterns. Her 1951 design Calyx became a symbol of mid-century modern style and over a career spanning decades, her innovative approach bridged fine art and industrial design. In the mid 1970s, Day began creating one-off compositions in silk in the form of fabric mosaics composed of 1 cm squares and strips of silk, creating an image through carefully placed blocks of colour.⁠ ⁠ Decoy and Pond, made in 1983.

Cloche Pendant in Dune⁠ ⁠ The statement Cloche pendant in Dune with a vivid yellow inner shade hangs above a counter in a beautiful kitchen by @mandarinstone. Our pendant lights work well above counters as an alternative to wall lights, and the height can be adjusted due to its adjustable cord. ⁠ ⁠ Photography by @mandarinstone⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ ⁠ #palefire #palefirestudio #contemporarylighting #sculpturallighting #lightingdesign #paperpulp #sustainabledesign #interiordecor #interiordesign #handmade #eclecticinterior #pendant #residentiallighting #objectdesign #lightingdesign #lampdesign #mouldedpaperpulp⁠ #colourfullighting #unusuallighting #artisticlighting #sustainablelighting #uniquelighting #statementlighting #decorativelighting

Studio Sourcebook: Raoul Dufy⁠ ⁠ Raoul Dufy (1877–1953) was a French painter known for his vibrant and colourful works and his association with the Fauvist movement. Although he is primarily remembered today as a painter, there is also a less publicised side to his work – that of a pioneering textile designer. He produced over 5,000 different textile patterns during his career, and designed fabrics for some of the world’s leading fashion designers and commercial textile manufacturers.⁠ ⁠ This was a design made for Bianchini-Ferier, c.1920

Bell Pendant in Celadon⁠ ⁠ The flush mounted Bell pendant light is the perfect solution for low ceilings when space is tight, but character is needed. The subtle Celadon colour way is a calming yet nuanced addition to a colour palette. ⁠ ⁠ Photography by @kim.lightbody_photography⁠ ⁠ Ceramics by @peterblackceramics and @arjanvandal_ceramics⁠ at @grovevaleceramics⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #palefire #palefirestudio #contemporarylighting #sculpturallighting #lightingdesign #paperpulp #sustainabledesign #interiordecor #interiordesign #handmade #eclecticinterior #pendant #residentiallighting #objectdesign #lightingdesign #lampdesign #mouldedpaperpulp⁠ #colourfullighting #unusuallighting #artisticlighting #sustainablelighting #uniquelighting #statementlighting #decorativelighting

Studio Sourcebook: The home of Paloma Cañizares⁠ ⁠ A bedroom in the home of Spanish interior designer Paloma Cañizares, an old country house in Alaior, a municipality on the island of Menorca.
