Housing wonderful collections in decorative & fine arts, medieval manuscripts, numismatics and entomology, Blackburn Museum and Art Gallery was one of the first museums to open outside London in 1874.
In 2011, Timorous Beasties explored their Japanese print collection as a source of inspiration for the Museum & Art Gallery’s promotional façade campaign.
Curator Hugo Macdonald commissioned Timorous Beasties in 2018 for the exhibition Useful/Beautiful: Why Craft Matters, held in Spring 2019 at Harewood House, one of England’s finest Treasure Houses.
Inspired by the thistles and roses adorning the Victoria & Albert Museum’s façade, Timorous Beasties redesigned the boardroom, incorporating wallpaper, drapes, printed blinds, and a bespoke rug, combining digital and traditional craft techniques.
Timorous Beasties’ Tree of Life design was applied in brilliant colour on optically clear vinyl to create a transparent spatial distinction between the upstairs café and the downstairs office suite in the Stratford Market Station building, East London.
