As the world slowly adjusts to the "new normal", for many the idea of 'home' has changed forever. Now more than ever, home has become our sanctuary – a comforting and nurturing place to which we can safely retreat in an uncertain world. A place warmed by nostalgia and coloured by the reassuring patina and textures of the past. And as we look to the past through a contemporary lens, it’s a place that helps us live a more natural and authentic life that gives us inspiration for a better future. This is a place defined by the style of Timeworn Treasures.
Timeworn Treasures is an antidote to the fast pace and overstimulation of modern life along with its ever-changing fashions and endless consumer choices. With no compromise to comfort or style, Timeworn celebrates the imperfections and imperfect character of natural materials. Think raw-edged timbers and the organic textures of stone. Luxurious leathers and cosy lighting. And the reassuring artisan's touch of hand-crafted furniture, fabrics, ceramics and art. It celebrates upcycling, repurposing and reuse as ‘trash’ becomes treasure.

Inviting, lived in and characterful, Timeworn Treasures lets you build your own statement and reflect the spirit of your home. Flooring is often the best place to start your style adventure as you create your welcoming sanctuary. Ground your style in the tones and textures of nature - dark and character-filled timbers juxtaposed with the timeless beauty of limed oak or the cool appeal of natural stone. Even the cooler greys of poured concrete can set the scene and bring a surprising warmth to your space.
Explore a timeless colour palette built around the earthy and organic. Think stoney pumice greys and warm timbers. Browns continue their rise as a directional colour with nostalgic sepia, bees wax and rust . Neutral and earthy colours provide a versatile and nurturing palette. Build your look with natural linen hues, the contrast of crisp white, the on-trend shades of cherry, kelp or ginger and a pop of green with a growing plant or freshly foraged flowers.

Timeworn Treasures is all about layering and injecting personality to create spaces and stories that harness nostalgia to evoke happiness and comfort. Explore the aesthetics of naturally worn and patinated materials and objects. Contrast rustic antiques with the textured beauty of 3D knits or luxurious hand woven fabrics. Mix design classics with upcycled furniture or traveller’s treasures with family heirlooms that tell the stories of other places, other times.
Through colour, pattern and texture, hand-crafted touches evoke emotional and nostalgic connections. Introduce rustic wicker and wood that provide vivid contrast to hand-blown glass or locally collected ceramics. Celebrate provenance and honour the hand of the artisan as maker’s marks and imperfections infuse objects with their own narrative and value.
Bringing organic tones, textures and materials together in this new rustic luxe replaces the conventional cornerstones of luxury. Instead of polished minimalism and hard-edged lines, this artisanal design approach creates an environment that is relaxed, welcoming and 'slow' – encouraging a heightened appreciation for the organic, the crafted, the imperfect and the understated. Be cocooned, nurtured and inspired within the new luxury of Timeworn Treasures.
Our online sample service is completely free and allows you to select six flooring designs, delivered straight to your door.
