About
House of Hackney is the B Corp interiors brand inspiring people to protect our common home by bringing the beauty of Nature into theirs.Through iconic wallpaper, fabric, paint, traditionally hand-crafted furniture and home accessories, you can bring the outside in with print and colour inspired by the natural world. Built upon the foundations of creativity with purpose, integrity in action and respect for all, they create unique and inspiring designs that will stand the test of time.Dreamt up in a Victorian townhouse in 2011 by Frieda Gormley and Javvy M Royle as a reaction to the white-walled living and throwaway culture of the past decade, they had the vision to meld a heritage aesthetic with a contemporary twist, and to create a brand that wasn’t just inspired by nature but did well for nature. The couple spent a year travelling around the UK to seek out factories and artisans who champion traditional craftsmanship with a lighter environmental footprint, to help forge a brand that uses business as a force for good.The House created is a sanctuary from the busy modern world, adorned with prints and colours inspired by Mother Nature. For House of Hackney, a product is never just a ‘product’, but a piece with purpose, created for both its beauty and its meaning. These ‘future heirlooms’ are artistically designed with sustainability principles, made in Britain by craftspeople specialising in generations-old trades, that will be cherished for years to come.Today the husband-and-wife team has grown into a family of artists, designers, producers and collaborators. Proudly certified as a B Corp, and with Mother Nature & Future Generations on their board of directors, the House explores pioneering production methods and ever-evolving ecological targets, establishing themselves as a forerunner in business that respects collective thriving and beautiful interiors inspired by the natural world.
