Our November palette of the month is inspired by the tones of Terracotta. It’s earthy tones add warmth to any space. It means ‘Baked Earth’ in Italian. It’s natural, rich quality helps to ground us. It reminds us of sunsets and warmer climes.

There are 2 things that we can be certain about right now

1. Nothing is certain.

2. No one knew how to wash their hands properly before 2020 (!)

Design for Diversity: The Pledge

Somehow we are here, in the middle of 2020; 12 weeks into lockdown and six months into a world where COVID19 prevails with over 6 million global confirmed cases.

As part of trifle’s* CONSCIENCE we like to dedicate some of our time for free - to help with charity organisations or companies that we believe are doing worthwhile things but cannot afford design consultation. 

London Design Festival hit London even bigger and better than before - team trifle* tried to cram in as much of it as possible and here are our highlights.

At trifle* we have grown our expertise and love of designing for fast paced tech start ups. Last year alone there were 11,864 software development and programming businesses incorporated in the UK and in spite of Brexit this sector continues to grow.

Trifle* and Workstories co-hosted a panel event entitled Designing a Human-Centric Workspace during Clerkenwell Design Week. When it comes to workspace design, we know that one size does not fit all, so we explored how spaces can – and should – be designed to suit the complexity and diversity of businesses and their people

It’s the 10th anniversary of Clerkenwell Design Week & trifle’s 9th year in attendance; the sun is set to shine & we are looking forward to connecting with Furniture partners, colleagues, friends & clients.  

So we are sharing the Boss’ picks/diary in case you are stuck for where to start!

We took to the snowy streets of Stockholm and here are our design highlights from their annual Design Week and Furniture Fair.

Are you making a list? Are you checking it twice? Whether your colleagues have been naughty or nice, chances are you need to buy one of them a Secret Santa gift to exchange at the office party. 

At Trifle* we work with a number of suppliers of furniture, flooring, lighting, textiles and accessories. In 2018, we undertook a piece of research to discover how the interiors industry is improving ethics and standards in the supply chains.

From the big shows to the design trails, the celebrations to the installations; this year's London Design Festival was a feast for the eyes.

The trifle* team have been busy with a new collaboration - this time with celebrated East London rug dealer FLOOR_STORY.

It's come round again! One of our favourite weeks of the year is here, London Design Festival!!

Anyone who follows our Instagram feed or Pinterest boards will know that we are big fans of the new pastels that are dominating the design world right now.

CDW 2018 starts next week and the trifle* team have put together a list of must-sees to share with you.....

With the sun finally shining it feels like time to freshen up all areas of our work lives so we've had a trawl through this season's bags to see you through a working day - whatever your (work) style.

On International Women's Day 2018 we discuss if work is working for today's women.

Ahhhhh Paris; Difficult to say without the ahhhh for it is a City that evokes much sentiment. It is impossible not to be bowled over by it’s beauty, charm and romance.
