A few weeks ago the River Island Style Studio commissioned The Pink House to come up with a new concept for their bar in River Island's flagship Oxford Street store. So we made mood boards, shopped till we dropped - and this week styled that bar up good and proper!
More details on exactly what we did - and how - to follow shortly (the big bar launch party is in October, but we CAN confirm that Buster + Punch lights, Pinkster gin and a Bag & Bones pink neon flamingo are involved), along with full reveal before/after pictures of what we created in the RI Style Studio. Head over to our Instagram, @pinkhouseliving, for a sneaky glimpse of what it looks like, now it's been Pink Housed...
But for now, we've got five fabulous bar accessories, inspired by the River Island X The Pink House bar. Cheers!
1. Ralph Lauren Dagny champagne saucer - £150 - Amara
2. AERIN brass oak leaf bottle opener - £84 - Amara
3. Tom Dixon copper Hex champagne bucket - £175 - Liberty
4. Deco Scarab coasters - £25 - The Curious Department
5. Sunnylife flamingo drink stirrers - £6 - John Lewis
Sometimes the perfect brand approaches you with the perfect project at the perfect time. In this case, when I was at peak print panic, it was Desenio, the affordable art specialists, who asked if I’d like to pick some pieces from their collection to hang on The Pink House walls…
There was only one possible venue for the launch party of my first book, Pink House Living, and that was sketch in London’s Mayfair. A huge pink THANK YOU to everyone involved; it was a truly fabulous evening - here are some pics of the night…
I don’t speak French, but 48 hours in Paris with an eight-year-old has qualified me to share my dos and don’ts of a (mainly) successful avec-kid trip to this sexy city…
The Vitra Design Museum exhibition 'Night Fever: Designing Club Culture 1960 - Today' is part voyeurism, part clinical analysis of someone’s leisure time. Which actually turns out to be an excellent way to spend an afternoon.
At uber-cool new boutique hotel Artist Residence Oxfordshire, “interior inspo” doesn’t even begin to cover it. This place is a veritable treasure trove of the hottest interior décor the UK has to offer, most of which I want to take home with me RIGHT NOW.
This UK Home Blog Hop is all about 'Summer Style'. So I thought I'd use the opportunity to focus on some cool new art that's adding a fizzy colour pop to The Pink House this season...
I might have been unlucky in my state of health during a recent London visit, but I was extremely fortunate when it came to my accommodation. The Artist Residence in London's Pimlico is, quite simply, one of the most inspirational hotels I've ever stayed in...
The Pink House Husband and I always talk about adding to our art collection, but life, Netflix and a complete inability to agree tend to get in the way. Not this time though!
"If you touch this, it will explode, and all the tiny shards of glass will fly into your eyes, blinding you forever." This was how I introduced the small Pink House Dwellers to our pink neon sign...

Come with me as I take Print Club London on a tour of The Pink House, chatting about renovations, surviving lockdown and my pick of their prints as we go…
