Coulson Macleod’s latest col­lec­tion, Curio, has come about because we love rum­ma­ging around old junk shops. We live in hope of unearth­ing some amaz­ing long-forgotten treas­ure. We usu­ally don’t. So we’ve recre­ated two actual adverts, just the sort of thing we’d like to find, but didn’t.

Believe it or not these are actual adverts. We’ve given them the Coulson Macleod treat­ment — dis­tressed text, rough-sawn solid oak frame, for a vin­tage, worn, and well-loved look.

Accord­ing to Alexa, the clever folk who meas­ure web­site traffic, Coulson Macleod is ranked 2,541,410 in the world.  Admit­tedly we’ve got a long way to go before we get to num­ber one, but this fig­ure is up 190% in the last three months. One day we’ll be the num­ber one for typo­graphic art, and lim­ited edi­tion art, which will be good enough for me.

And if you only take our rank in the US we’re 386,653 the most pop­u­lar web­site, which does sound so much better.

Since we launched Coulson Macleod Lim­ited Edi­tion back in March (2009) it’s been really excit­ing to see who and where people are talk­ing about us, and we log all the best bits on our Face­book page.  I’ve seen things writ­ten about us in all sorts of lan­guages includ­ing Thai, and I just have to hope they’ve writ­ten nice things as it’s com­pletely inde­cipher­able to me.

Take a look and we’d love you to become a fan too.

Pixels is the latest Coulson Macleod lim­ited edi­tion art collection.

So there I am, mind­ing my own busi­ness, when Macleod says the words that bring all this into being, “Don’t take this the wrong way but I don’t think much to the pic­tures on your walls”, she’s like that, tact­ful in the extreme.

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.…
