Double-take textiles and fantastical furntiture

Talk of the town: Timorous Beasties' remarkable interior designs have been showcased in London's V&A Museum and the British Council Design Museum, amongst other exalted temples of design.

World-renowned for their tongue-in-cheek wallpapers featuring unconventional subject matter, Glaswegians Alistair McAuley and Paul Simmons hatched Timorous Beasties right here in Glasgow's West End. Featuring everything from enormous iguanas to the underbelly of society, the design duo's bold prints are also available as cushion covers, lightshades and rugs in this quirky-fabulous store.

Despite the brand's expansion to include another showroom in London, this very Scottish interior design powerhouse is still firmly rooted in the city, with the majority of products fabricated in Glasgow.
