designed two more typographic prints for our ‘Decades’ collection; ‘The Nineties’ and ‘The Noughties’. Yay!

And, even more exciting news, we’re also launching a bespoke version too. We’ll obviously show you the finished prints when they’re ready.

These are the three existing typographic prints in our ‘Decades’ collection…

Our three new typographic prints will feature brand-new, even lovelier and chunkier, frames. Professionally framed by a Fine Art Trade Guild member.

So in preparation for the launch, we’ve put our framed ‘Decades’ collection (with the old-style picture frame) in our Clearance Page. So don’t hesitate if you fancy picking up a bargain, numbers are limited, and when they’ve sold out… well they’re sold out.

ELLE Decoration, November 2010 issue.

Elle Decoration chose ‘The Roar of Tree and Crack of Branches’ typographic print from our Winter Trees collection.

We hand make the frame and panelled backboard from reclaimed wood. Actually the wood used to be Victorian roof timbers. How cool is that? We paint the wood and print on top with distressed image and typography.

Each artwork is totally unique. And totally unique to Coulson Macleod.

Coulson Macleod is a teeny weeny company.

There’s Mark, he’s the Coulson half. And there’s me, Hannah, the Macleod half.

The business is built on love and driven by passion. This is true. This is not some made-up marketing spiel.

Mark and I met, fell in love, moved in together and then got bored of staring at blank walls. We knew what we liked. But couldn’t find it to buy. Or if we did, we couldn’t afford it.

Then we said, “I bet there are other people out there just like us,” (or words to that effect).

Coulson Macleod is our baby. We love it and nurture it. We wake in the night to think about it. We proudly tell others about it. We glow with pride when it does well. It is ours. And we’re on a wonderful journey.

Perhaps Mark and I are building big castles way on high. Just the two of us. You and I.

Limited edition vintage-style art print by Coulson Macleod

We now have our second stockist on board.

The divine-looking Bolina in Oslo, Norway. Unfortunately I can’t tell you much about the shop as the website is in Norwegian, apart from it was set up twenty years ago by two female friends, Cathrine and Hanne, and is one of the trendiest shops in Oslo, which the stylists visit every week for inspiration.

The photos of the products speak for themselves and it totally looks like a place that we’d quite happily spend hours browsing and buying.

Oooh, I’ve just thought, maybe Coulson Macleod should start visiting our stockists (yes I can say that word now in the plural) to say hello properly.

So what’s a boy to do?  Buy new art obviously.

Easier said than done.  We just could not find a thing we liked.  Or if we liked it we couldn’t afford it.  We wanted something cool and funky and not mass-produced, there’s nothing worse than seeing your prized possession on the walls of Ian Beale’s home in Eastenders!

We also had the usual “I’m not putting that on the wall!” type conversations, whenever I looked admiringly at a pop-art supehero or she produced a picture of a daisy from behind her back!

Eventually, to get exactly what we wanted, we decided to make our own (I am a graphic designer after all), and the idea was born — Coulson Macleod — in all it’s shiny glory!

Oops, got a bit carried away there…

Anyway, ‘Dead Cool’ was the first print to make it onto our walls and the start of a whole new adventure for us.

What do you think?

(And please tell me you get it… so many people don’t!)

Coulson Macleod is now just over six months old and slowly starting to find its feet, and this bit of our blog is all about Coulson Macleod the business — the highs, the lows, maybe a few more lows, then possibly another high, you get the picture. It will all be here. Please feel free to join us.…

(I accidentally, have no idea how, deleted the last one).  Oops!

Anyway welcome to the random musings of Coulson Macleod.
