The paint industry currently creates more than 50,000 tonnes of toxic waste every year, but pioneers of sustainable paint, Edward Bulmer, have spent years developing natural paints using plant-based ingredients and mineral pigments instead of petrochemical-derived products. Their paints are non-toxic, breathable, and eco-friendly – and the colours are great too! Water based eggshell, £80 per 2.5ltr edwardbulmerpaint.co.uk
Left: Whimsical without being twee, like so many of Hattie Lloyd’s hand-drawn designs, Bee Bloom wallpaper is inspired by nature. The bee’s wings turn into floral bouquets but teamed with rustic wood and concrete, this wallpaper turns into a work of art. Bee Bloom, £89 per roll hattielloyd.com
Right: Inspired by fantastical costume drama and elaborate rococo design, the new Cotton Candy collection from Newcastle-based designer Susi Bellamy includes fabric, lampshades and cushions. We love this retro-style caramel ruffle check cushion, £125 susi-bellamy.com
