Named after the Cold War era of competition between the USA and USSR over spaceflight capabilities, Artel’s Space Race collection is comprised of two separate motifs. Sputnik featuring an image of the famous Soviet satellite in flight, careening past glittering gold stars and planets while Apollo 11 depicts a space-suited American astronaut standing near a lunar landing module with a magnificent earthrise looming in the background.
Each motif features richly detailed handengraving, with generous quantities of gold and platinum gilding.

www.rayware.co.uk “In the Denby Design Studio we refer to neo luxe as ‘glam’ – a touch of elegance and stylish inspiration which indulges in the drama of the 1920s. Glam, it appears, has enduring design qualities. Almost like the 1920s reborn which followed the aftermath of the depression and the First World War, there is a growth in glamorous looks using gold, metals, shiny deep rich luxurious colours and textures such as velvet, evident in hotel interiors. Our homes have had to work extra hard and post pandemic and there is a surge in at-home entertaining and home hosting. Look out for some epic food party images and stories around tablescapes featuring oversized serveware. However, with sustainability being uppermost in all our minds, there has to be a golden middle ground – opulence married with sustainability – glamour executed with quality and at affordable prices. Neo Luxe could be around for a while yet by slowly introducing patterned wallpaper, shimmering metallic, animal prints, stories around travel, authenticity, textures and by mixing modern deco with maximalism in celebration of the roaring 2020s.” Richard Eaton, design director, Denby
