Visit to Chelsea Harbour Design Centre

Just a selection of products/showrooms which caught my imagination:

Top floor by Etsi:
Award-winning Top Floor's rugs are created by founder and Design Director, Esti Barnes who also designs bespoke rugs and carpets for residential and commercial clients.
Princess Gevher rug is incredibly fresh, an immediate update for spring!



This Emmenthal rug is so unique, incredible detail and shades, bit more wintery but hey, it's only Jan:

Porta Romana:

Porta Romana is a UK based atelier devoted to creating objects of beauty, founded by Andrew and Sarah Hills.
I love the Carat Gold Leaf Limited Edition Duck Feet Lamp, super stylish and quirky. Put a smile on my face as I walked in - fun isn't it?
H.20" with 14" Goose Feather shade, H.34". Exists in black, even more divine in my opinion!

These cushions are not for the faint hearted but it's incredibly soft and beautiful.

Here is a lamp I spotted in there (more butterflies...)

Original BTC England
Fab selection of lighting, from floor lamp to retro table lamp.
One of my favourite, the Stanley Copper below, looks great mixed with vintage on first image but equally chic with a contemporary kitchen (I am  really into Gold & Copper at the moment):





(As displayed in the showroom)

I also spent some time browsing wallpapers, bathroom furniture and other beauties but keeping this for a post on those specific products, it is getting late and I have an early start tomorrow, going to Maison & Objets in Paris (no I am not excited at all!!!)
