Miffy might look like a simple children’s character, but this small Dutch rabbit has leapt from the pages of kid’s books to become a design and fashion icon. In this post, I explore how she moved from bedtime stories into the worlds of interiors and style.

In this article, I’ll be sharing my key decoration, design, and styling takeaways from one of the world’s main design destinations - Focus/25 on Design. Having spent four days at the Design Centre in London, I will show you some of the new collections, the latest colour palettes, wall coverings, patterns, furniture trends, and much more. I’ll also include snippets of a few of the talks, demonstrations, and workshops I attended to give you a feel for the event. Read the post to find out about The Longer View so you too can immerse yourself in design, colour, and pattern.
