Timorous Beasties

Timorous Beasties, a renowned name in textile manufacturing, has been creating exceptional wallpapers, fabrics, and homewares since 1990. Based in Glasgow, Timorous Beasties embodies a unique diversity of pattern, ranging from designs that echo a golden age of copperplate engraving to examples of a distinctly edgy nature, an elegant transgression, and a display of chic irreverence.

With locations including Glasgow, G13 2UN, GB; 384 Great Western Road, Glasgow, Scotland G4 9HT, GB; 19 Britton Street, London, England EC1M 5NZ, GB; and 35 Northumberland Street, Edinburgh, Scotland EH3 6LR, GB, Timorous Beasties fully engages in a design discourse with textiles history by lending an aesthetic evolution to time-honoured motifs. Noteworthy creations include the critically acclaimed Glasgow Toile, which transformed the traditional toile device to create an exclusively modern urban genre, and the Hotch Blotch fabric series, which challenges a 1000-year-old aesthetic mode. Hunting Toile and Urban wallpapers also mark a synthesis of 18th-century chinoiserie groupings, Rococo swirls, and Victorian silhouette paper cuts to create a uniquely contemporary ornamental textiles pattern repeat.

Dedicated to the visual connection between nature, art, and society, Timorous Beasties impacts pattern design in our daily experience of furnished spaces, from one-bedroom flats to country villas, to the halls of civic and government buildings, departure lounge backdrops, boutique enclaves, restaurants, and hotels. Today, Timorous Beasties continues to innovate and inspire. We invite the management team at Timorous Beasties to create a customized and exclusive company showcase and product listing on our platform, enhancing their reach and market presence.
