Viva Magenta: Colour of the Year 2023 0
Viva Magenta, a bright, vibrant crimson shade as been chosen as the Pantone Colour of the Year 2023! It's an exciting, exuberant shade that will add joy and optimism to designs and decor.
A colour drawn from nature, Viva Magenta balances warm and cool tones with ease. Described as a signal of strength, fearless, and empowering - it effortlessly attracts attention and lets you express yourself.
Using Viva Magenta Around Your Home
As both a statement colour and a radiant accessory, Viva Magenta will become popular with interior designers and anyone loving colour in their home.
A feature wall in this vibrant shade will warm and lift even large spaces. It pairs well with painted furniture in pale grays, blues, or pastels.
In neutrally-decorated homes, Viva Magenta adds just that pop of colour needed to lift the whole room. Imagine an upholstered chair or stylish sofa. And for those just flirting with the colour, floral arrangements or small decor items are an ideal choice.
In Our Stores
Our popular painted furniture collections - like our Bicester Painted or Cobble Painted collections - are available in shades from white to cream to grey, sage, pale blue, and truffle, which complement Viva Magenta to perfection.

Shoe Storage Made Easy 0
Shoes seem to take on a life of their own in the hallway, and sorting them out is one of those tasks most of us dread. A dedicated shoe cupboard will take out the hassle of tidying away all your trainers, wellies, pumps and boots once and for all!
A cluttered hallway doesn't make a great first impression, whether you're coming home after a long day at work, or welcoming a guest. That's where shoe cabinets, hallway racks, and console tables come into their own. They store the clutter and leave you with a clam, welcoming space.
Not to mention that a tidy hallway will feel larger and brighter.
De-cluttering your hallway is easy when you’ve got furniture that does the hard work for you. Our solid oak shoe cabinets come in a range of shapes and sizes, so there's a good chance you'll find one to fit your hallway. We have both short and tall shoe cabinets, or you can simply make use of a blanket box to house all of your footwear in.
There's no need to despair if your hallway is tiny, either. Shoe racks don't take up much space, and neither does a hall tidy, which combines coat-and-shoe-storage with hallway seating.
We stock both shoe racks and hall tidies in solid and painted wood. Plus... how about a cheerful place to store umbrellas, walking sticks, and parasols? You can find those in our stores, too.
