Website of the Week: Dupenny

I frigging, god damn love this weeks website, it's all a little, well, how do you say? fruity?! This website has been on my radar for a while, but started as me (perving) looking at their wares on: Not on The High Street I soon fell in total and absolute love with the kitsch prints that were, a little, ooh la la.

Dupenny was thought up in 2009 by the rather gorgeous and supremely talented Dupen-hopkins, and is based in one of my absolute fave places in the whole world: Brighton. Dupenny are the epitome of fun: Creating wallpaper, homewares and ceramics, all lovingly made, and sporting their cheeky retro themes. What initially grabbed my attention was Dupenny's ability to keep it simple: all black and white in colour, yet never ever distracting from the print itself. Dupenny as a whole is what I would call fun - yes, not everyone will like cheeky burlesque girls emblazoned on their walls, but why not bring a little 'you know what' by adding some of the ceramics, or adding a little bit here and there, with their various homewares. For me, it's something that I just haven't seen anywhere else - yes, there is a big 'thing' for patterned wallpaper, but most of the time we are talking flowers and the like - Dupenny brings you something a little more, something to talk about.

Here I pick out my favourites:

Wallpapers:
