I'm starting the week by sharing another discovery from the recent ‘Sunny Design Days’ tour of Spain, organised by the Spanish Design Association (RED). For me, one of the highlights of the trip was a visit to Gandia Blasco, a family-run company founded in the small Valencian town of Ontinyent in 1941. Originally a blanket manufacturer, it was reinvented in the 1980s by current president José . . .
The autumn-winter 2017 collection from Kristina Dam
I have another new-season collection to share with you today, and it's from a Danish designer whose work hasn't featured on These Four Walls before: Kristina Dam.

Our destination was Bruton – one of my go-to places when I need an escape from the city.
