Colours May Vary trip and talk.

From looking round colours may vary you get an idea of the kind of products that are sold and selling at the shop. They try and keep up with the contemporary market selling products for example small Ceramic sculptures , note books , wrapping paper and artist books. They tend to scores these locally and from other countries like Berlin. But they also said that since Brexit there interest charge for bring the products over has increased a lot and this is having an effect on there income as a result.

Other points made in talk:

  • The shop was made out of Redundancy Money.
  • Provides also Magazines , Prints and Porducts.
  • It filled the space in which when Habbitat and Boarders left the headrow for home based products.
  • Exhabitons spaces- Drew Millward, Felt Mistress.
  • When proposing any products to them it has to fit within the asethetic of the shop.
  • Best to email them with work and let them absorb what they have seen then start communication from there.
  • They like quality and process. However cheap well done processes like risograph printing instead of hand /screen printing the images.
  • Yuck print house is good fro Risogrpah printing.
  • Presentation is key. 
  • Dose the process match the design of the image?
  • Trying to find ways to fund experimentation from new graduates.
  • Artist worked with :
  • Hungry Sandwich .
  • Lord Whitney.
  • Wilfred Temanious.
  • Matt Kelly.
  • Aden- print Lino cuts.' he man'
  • Craige Oldham.
  • Lost fox - prints.
