Retro print revival’s 2015 collection is here Take a step back into yesteryear as we invite you to see the newest additions to the Retro Print Revival range of classic mid-century style lamps. This year, we have our largest collection yet of exclusive, beautiful fabrics that will make your lamp the talking point of your home. And if you thought we were only about lamps, this year’s collection has a surprise in store for you… Since RPR’s beginnings in 2009, designer Tamara Watts has poured her love of European Modernism into creating a treasure trove of colourful, fun and distinguished lamps and shades. Taking cues from furniture design of the era, Tamara has drawn on the fashion, music and cinema of the age and finished up with something rather more than the sum of it’s parts. At once an ode to the bygone era of the Continental 1960’s, these objects are also unmistakably Melbourne in 2015: Environmentally friendly, locally made and bold. Continuing the ethos that has been part of Retro Print Revival since day one, our lamps are created with shade fabrics designed and printed in Australia. Our timber products are turned and finished here in Melbourne, as are all our ceramic products. We also continue our practice of up-cycling original retro wares, breathing new life into forgotten pieces; creating true one-off designs that are also sustainable.
We believe in supporting local trade wherever possible, and in minimising our footprint on the earth. Tamara Watts is a designer, interior decorator and visual merchandiser who can help you find the perfect fit for your home. However, each piece is custom made to order, so you can match shades and bases to your heart’s desire. Drawing on subtle pastel geometrics to bold retro designs, Retro Print Revival caters to a range of styles and tastes. We hope you enjoy our new collection.
