Inspired by the thistles and roses festooning the Victoria and Albert Museum's exterior architectural surface, Timorous Beasties re-designed the V&A boardroom in 2010.
Introducing an atmosphere of warmth to an otherwise conventionally formal space, we framed the wallpaper pattern to a height that simultaneously avoided encroachment on the room’s art collection and yet created a field of focus for the main portrait of Queen Victoria. The centre-piece rug (manufactured by Loophouse), drapes, and a printed blind showcase a craftwork juxtaposition of high-tech digital printing and traditional hand-printing and hand-tufted manufacturing methods.
Timorous Beasties has collaborated with Edinburgh-based chocolatier COCO to design two new limited- edition bars, launched on 18 January 2020.
Curator Hugo Macdonald approached TB back in 2018 regarding an exhibition he was planning on holding taking place at Harewood House in the Spring of 2019.
Timorous Beasties designed two engraved, polished granite over-slabs for the new Robert Burns Museum in Alloway to mark the walkway from the Museum to Burns’ cottage.
Timorous Beasties created custom Graffito Velvet for their friends at Pinch.
