A post shared by ElizabethSnow&StephenSheppard (@thesnowsheppard)

Elizabeth Snow & Stephen Sheppard are the creatives behind new indie business, The Snow Sheppard. They design and make children’s play and interior décor items from sustainable birch plywood. The couple use much of their home as an online showroom, including this homely living space with its eye-catching geometric décor.

The first thing that attracted me to the image was the monochrome tiled splashback. The second? The perfectly matched wall art! The tiles are by DarkRoom and the print is the work of graphic artist, Tom Pigeon; you’d be forgiven for thinking that they were by the same designer.

Both the tiles and the wall art are deceptively simple; just dark grey circles, rectangles, triangles and a few other basic shapes. However, the pattern and composition of those shapes combine to make something so pleasing.

Price Points: Hexagonal shelves

Selection of hexagonal shelves | H is for Home

Looking at the three hexagonal shelves in the photo, can you tell which one is 15 times the price of one of the others? The cheapest of the trio costs £10, the most expensive comes in at £150. The intermediate one is £77.74 for three – around £25.91 each.

Most of us would rather have 15 of the cheapest ones than just the single costly one. Thanks to their hexagonal shape, they can be used in a modular fashion, arranged to fit to the shape of the space on your wall.

Etsy List: What’s the angle?

'What's the angle' Etsy List curated by H is for Home

I could never get my head round geometry when I was at school. Pythagoras, pi, trigonometry, algebra, calculus, equations… it’s all Greek to me! 🙂

I loved all the tools in the Helix Oxford maths set that my parents had to buy me; the divider, protractor, set square and compass. I made lots of pretty drawings, but perhaps I should have been spending the time actually listening to the teacher instead!

Nevertheless, I might not understand any of it, but I can still admire the forms and patterns, shapes and angles that are created!
