A scheme built around one fabric: Polly Stripe.

For this inviting scheme, has used Polly Stripe linen for the curtains, cushions and trim, layering its warm yellow and rust tones with cooler teal and the softness of Romney Wool. The result is a welcoming palette with a considered balance of colour and texture.

“Rust feels particularly relevant this season, but the palette as a whole has real longevity. Using Polly Stripe throughout creates a sense of continuity across the room.”

– Holly Bruce, Linwood Stylist
