Admit­tedly this has been on the Coulson Macleod agenda for some time. Our cus­tom­ers keep ask­ing for it. And now, finally, we’ve almost done it…

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.

Intro­du­cing the first of two brand new Coulson Macleod typo­graphic art col­lec­tions launched today.

The Stamp Collection

A super chunky (8cm deep if you want the exact meas­ure­ment) hand­made, vintage-style, rough-sawn solid oak frame sur­round­ing a white-washed oak panel prin­ted with stamped typo­graphy. The size of the art­work is 54cm x 54cm.

The Stamp Col­lec­tion has an unlim­ited print quantity.

The oak panel is cut and sanded by hand before being covered with a coat of diluted white lac­quer wash to fill the grain, and then sanded and re-washed with the lac­quer a second time. The panel is then over-printed with UV ink.

The mitred frame is hand­made using rough-sawn solid oak. We pur­pose­fully retain any defects in the oak to add to the charm and char­ac­ter of the piece. These can include knot holes, warps and water marks, so each frame is totally unique.

A funny thing happened last night. As Coulson and I were enjoy­ing din­ner with friends our phones star­ted beep­ing with incom­ing texts “you’re on TV!”

Yes, one of Coulson Macleod’s typo­graphic prints had been spot­ted on Chan­nel 4’s celebrity Christ­mas spe­cial of Come Dine With Me.

As usual the pro­gramme brought together a strange mix of folk. There was the DJ Gol­die (pic­tured below), 70s crooner Tony Christie, ex-Blue Peter presenter Janet Ellis (who’s now bet­ter known for being mother of singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor), and act­ress Susie Amy (best known as Chardon­nay from TV-show Foot­ballers’ Wives).

So can you guess in which home our art was spotted?

Susie Amy’s.

show­cas­ing Coulson Macleod’s ‘Paris’ print

We fell in love with the sim­pli­city of the shot: plain white sheets; old trunk; wooden bed; Paris. Lots of tex­ture, gor­geous light­ing. So very simple. So very Coulson Macleod.

And we couldn’t do this blog post without men­tion­ing two of our favourites…

We fell in love with the warmth and cosi­ness of this fest­ive liv­ing room. We want to snuggle up on their sofa in front of the roar­ing log fire with a glass of mulled wine.

And this one just totally reflects the cool sim­pli­city of Scand­inavian chic: white-washed paneled walls; indus­trial light; P.S. I Love You. Beau­ti­fully styled.

Any prints not in stock, or ordered after the date shown can’t be guar­an­teed for deliv­ery before Christ­mas but can still be pur­chased in the nor­mal way.

Coulson Macleod is delighted to announce a brand new stock­ist: Hirst & Hirst.

Hirst & Hirst is a gor­geous new interi­ors shop in Oakham (in the very pretty and tiny Eng­lish county of  Rutland).

And they will be selling our typo­graphic art. Yip­pee!

Hirst & Hirst sell an eclectic mix of con­tem­por­ary home­ware and gifts with a strong emphasis on style. Yep! That’ll be us then.

Many of the items in store have been fea­tured in magazines such as Elle Dec­or­a­tion and Easy Liv­ing. Yep! We’ve been fea­tured in both of those magazines.

Some of the design­ers include Snowden Flood, whose work has been com­mis­sioned by the Tate and Lon­don Trans­port Museum. We are totally in love with her glass tum­blers with winter trees. As you know, we love winter trees.

Other design­ers include Matt Wing­field, who has worked for Har­vey Nich­ols, Diesel, Ted Baker and Stu­art Gardiner, whose home­ware range is sold in Liberty, The Con­ran Shop, and Anthropologie.

Also for sale in Hirst & Hirst is ISAK, a Swedish brand, foun­ded by Sandra Isaks­son, which has an unmis­tak­ably Scand­inavian style, all influ­enced by Sandra’s her­it­age and travels. And we love the fact she says ISAK products are part hand made by trolls.

One of Coulson Macleod’s typo­graphic prints was awar­ded first prize to the win­ner of Design Refuge’s Octo­ber Chal­lenge. Design Refuge, if you haven’t already come across it, is the largest meet­ing place online for design blog­gers worldwide.

The win­ner was Jac­quelyn Clark from blog lark & linen, who had to ask for help as she simply couldn’t decide which of these prints to choose…

Hand­made vintage-style, rough-sawn, solid oak frame sur­round­ing a white-washed oak panel prin­ted with dis­tressed typography

Dis­tressed typo­graphy prin­ted onto solid limestone

Hand­made frame and pan­elled back­board made from reclaimed wood, paint is applied by hand and then over-printed with dis­tressed image and typography

She said, “So as you all know, I was voted the Design Refuge Octo­ber chal­lenge win­ner. Yay!! My prize includes a print from the very tal­en­ted Coulson Macleod and I need your help! Their work is pretty incred­ible; often made with reclaimed mater­i­als, each piece is unique and beau­ti­ful. I’ve nar­rowed it down to the above three and would love to know, which do you prefer? I just can’t decide. As an aside, yes­ter­day Coulson Macleod put together a really sweet fea­ture on their blog about lark + linen. It’s the first time I’ve been fea­tured since start­ing my blog last April and if you’d like to see it please take a look here. It truly made my day.”

In the end Jac­quelyn chose our ‘The Roar of Trees and Crack of Branches’ print, which was fea­tured in the Novem­ber issue of Elle Dec­or­a­tion magazine.
