North Shields

Kay Carter Studio is a dedicated homeware design studio based on the North East Coast of England and was established in 2020 by myself, Kay. We handcraft high quality, functioning accessories for your home and work space. All of our homewares are made entirely by hand, producing one of a kind pieces every time. Made with a natural gypsum mineral and a water based compound, our products are sustainable, durable and a lightweight alternative to other casting materials like concrete or fibre glass. We produce a wide range of homewares in eye catching and colourful terrazzo and marbled designs. Specialising in colour customisation, we give you the opportunity to create unique items for your space or special gifts for loved ones. We also design and develop branded and bespoke products for our wholesale customers and collaborative partners. With a love for all things gold, you will find this common feature throughout. With everything that we create, we have a strong focus and commitment to being a sustainable business. It is considered in all aspects of what we do, everything from our studio space, the design and production of our homewares to the packaging and delivery to you. Take a look around and please email Kay at info@kaycarterstudio.co.uk with any queries. ‘Have nothing in your houses that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful’ – William Morris

Lume Lighting

Hove

I find joy in craft and the handmade and I’m so lucky that I get to hand make my own products everyday. I live in Brighton where I grew up, I’m an avid tea drinker, a colour lover and I find happiness in being outdoors and in nature. Lume lighting is based in a small sunny studio at the bottom of Albert Mews in Brighton & Hove, UK. From here I hand make contemporary and traditional sewn lampshades using Lume’s own collection of printed fabrics and a range of luxury linens. Alongside my expertly designed lampshades, there are unique fairy lights and pendant lights to add interest and fun to your home. I am a skilled lampshade maker and have been expertly manufacturing lampshades since 2014. After adding contemporary drum lampshades to my range of homewares, I found a love for lampshades and decided to focus on lighting and rebranded my homewares business from ‘Joanna Corney’ to ‘Lume Lighting’ in 2018. Being a trained printed textile designer means that my lampshades are unique as they are made using my own exclusive screen and lino printed fabric. I am skilled in the traditional methods of soft lampshade making as well as hard backed contemporary styles, and offer a bespoke made to order and lampshade recovering service.

Anna makes small collections of functional ceramics that blend elegant forms with complementary colours. All pieces are hand made by Anna to create premium and sustainable homewares that are made to last a lifetime. Her drinkware collections are crafted from slipcast porcelain, a high quality clay that is both refined and strong. Known for it's whiteness, porcelain provides the perfect canvas for Anna's hand-painted 'Splatter' glazes and dyed clay bodies. In contrast, Anna's homeware collection of bespoke architectural planters are hand-built using heavily grogged stoneware clay which gives a textured surface to the simple forms. Anna is the co-founding member of Clay Collective, a 12 member ceramics co-operative based in London. Anna is currently living and working in Bristol.

Shiv Textiles

East Sussex

Shiv Textiles is an independent, Brighton-based studio closing the loop on the fast-fashion industry. We rescue deadstock yarn destined for landfill and handcraft it into fine homewares, lifestyle accessories and sustainable weaving kits for you to give a new life at home. Meet the maker: Siobhan Martin Let me spin you a yarn… My studio is about weaving sustainability into the textiles industry. By putting a modern spin on a traditional craft, I want to show that it’s possible for us to enjoy quality products – pieces you really cherish – while minimising the impact we have on the planet too. Shiv Textiles was born in my bedroom in 2017. As an intern for big-name brands in the textiles and fashion industry, I’d been shocked by the amount of perfectly good materials going to waste. And I knew there had to be a better way. Fast fashion needs to take its foot off the pedal. So I began contacting mills and factories, buying their yarns, zips, threads, buttons – all destined for landfill – by the kilogram. And it’s from this that all those cushions, scarves and weaving kits are created. This process never gets beige-and-boring. You have to think on your feet. Design with what you have. Every box of upcycled materials that lands in my studio feels like a small victory. Buying with thought and care has never felt so important, and as I hope you’ll join me in honouring the lifecycle of our precious materials. And enjoy my textiles too.

Kate Colin Design

kate colin design

Kate Colin is a paper folding artist and designer based in Glasgow who creates bold and sculptural lighting and homewares. Inspired by origami and geometric form, her range of handcrafted folded products emphasise the interplay between light and shade. Founded in 2014, her studio manufactures products for both residential interiors and commercial clients. All work is produced in small limited edition quantities and made entirely by hand using traditional folding and fabric pleating techniques. Kate’s appreciation for the beauty and variety of geometric form was inherited from her mathematician father who made polyhedral models in his spare time. Many years later, she decided to channel this latent interest in colour, tonal variations and geometry to create a range of functional homeware products. Having received several awards and scholarships, she is continually striving to increase her knowledge of the art of folding and origami, learn new techniques and experiment with ways of applying her designs to new materials to create a variety of innovative, functional products. She regularly teaches all levels of students and hosts regular online and in-person paper folding workshops and masterclasses. She has also recently launched a new course with Domestika.
