Conran: New Wallpaper, Windows and Market Picks

There's lots of fun and exiting happenings going on at Conran. First off, and to celebrate Sir Terrance Conran's 80th birthday, Conran have allowed Surface View access to a range of mid-century prints from their V&A archives. Photographed here with their new Barton range in partnership with Ercol - a seven piece range of solid oak furniture (shown above/below). Their visual team have been busy creating a 'Sunrise to Sunset' theme for their summer windows, depicting a summer's day from breakfast to evening drinks, with morning and evening birdsong playing in each section. I certainly need to hot foot it down there to see it in person, especially given how beautiful their spring windows were. Finally, I've shared a few picks from The Conran Shop's summer range, because let's face it: these guys stock some seriously tempting pieces! Anything catch your eye? Have you seen the new window displays yet?

The Conran Shop, London - Spring Windows & Market Picks

Hurrah for Friday! It's my first weekend back in London and one of my first stops this weekend will be The Conran Shop to check out their spring windows in person. So I thought I'd share you some sneak peeks of the window displays, which have been given a seasonal uplift with cheery blossom trees on a carpet of more than two million fabric petals. Each day until the end of March, the visual team at each store will add more than 50 buds to each tree until they are heavy with blossom. The team have even infused a natural cheery blossom scent into the petals - now that's what I call attention to detail! I've picked out some of the items I'll be looking out for this weekend in a Conran Shop market picks special. What do you like from their spring collection?
