An era mishmash features throughout the artworks of Haus of Lucy with reimagined figurines blending old with new and artfully embellished prints adding contemporary details to historic scenes – think George Washington with hair rollers, classic art meets Adidas, or Edwardian children huffing NOS.
Continuing this playful theme, traditional Delft meets modern whimsy in a duo of Haus of Lucy tile collections. The hand painted offerings showcase everyday objects like washing machines, toothpaste, and a humble lonely tampon, each in the iconic white and blue.
Finer details are found throughout the printed Delft collection where Pot Noodles, Crocs, and Wotsits make surprisingly stylish decor. Set against the stunning Delft colour scheme, these ordinary items are given unexpected beauty, each taking on a strong nostalgia with this familiar old-school aesthetic.
