Palefire Studio x 8 Holland Street

Overview
Palefire Studio x 8 Holland Street
Palefire takes its name from the novel by Vladimir Nabokov, and in turn, from Shakespeare’s Timon of Athens; 'The moon’s an arrant thief, / And her pale fire she snatches from the sun’. Though Nabokov’s exact meaning is debated, the Shakespeare quote is widely believed to be a metaphor about creativity itself.

Palefire works to blur some of the historically distinct lines between domestic design and ‘fine art’, bringing an artistic sensibility to design for the home. 

 

Palefire makes homeware which challenges, and offers an antidote to, the minimalist aesthetic still dominating the middle market. Our flamboyant approach, drawing on the spirit and romance of historical art and design moments like Art Nouveau, the Omega Workshops, Abstract Expressionism, and mid-century Murano glass-making, is always underpinned by a commitment to responsible design practices.

 

 PALEFIRE X 8 HOLLAND STREET collection is comprised of 12 designs available in 4 exclusive colourways, including bright green and blue, a chalky white and wild stripe.
