In everything we do, we aim to be as green, as local and as sustainable as possible, so attention to details really matters to us...right down to the trademark wooden labels we use.

If you've ever wondered how artist and designers start researching a new subject to draw then here Jac Scott reveals some initial steps in drawing with ink.

Inspired by the mesmerising flocks of Canada geese flying in the vast Norfolk skies she starts studying the birds and collecting some photos for detailed referencing. Then the first sketches emerge.

Where will you put our new KNOT pendant light?

Utopia's KNOT light brings a contemporary 'loft living' vibe with nuances of the nautical and the industrial. We love the the mix of materials and simple lines of this design, making it an easy fit for most stylish homes - where will you put your KNOT?  It has been created from a waxed, wooden ceiling rose and lamp holder with a giant knot of chunky jute rope cable. 

The extra attraction of this pendant light is that they are all made to order. This means you can specify the length of the cable and how many knots you'd like plus how many drops. 

Prices start at £90 for a single KNOT.

This light looks fabulous with the modern retro-style LED filament that provides a great light at low cost, without any heat build up. 

Raw Collection

The Raw Collection captures an elemental grandeur for interiors wherein the essence of beautiful materials is celebrated in the raw. The main inspiration for this stylish contemporary collection is the four natural elements: fire, air, earth and water.  Through harnessing the juxtaposed energies of: metal, wood and stone a natural dynamic in design evolves.
