The start of another month – and in this case, another season – means it's time for my regular round-up of design news and other interesting bits and bobs.

The new ‘Escapes’ collection from Skandinavisk
As anyone who reads my posts regularly will know, I'm a bit obsessed with scented candles (you can find a round-up of my favourites here).
