MONTHLY UPDATE AUGUST 2009

Passion and Integrity.....



I was listening to a radio interview on Monday as I was driving back from a client meeting, where the host asked his guest why his specialist business was so successful. Without any hesitation his guest put it down to two factors – PASSION and INTEGRITY. I couldn’t help thinking that this was a perfect theme for our August newsletter.

To succeed in any business you must be passionate about the work you are doing for your customer, and you must always act in their best interest, even if that means there might not be any business for you. This is especially true for residential interiors where your customer will look at your work almost every day. I’m pleased to say that this has always been the Limited Editions philosophy, and now I have a better way to describe it!

New Fabric and Wallpaper Collections
Spring is here and as always there is a stream of new fabric and wallpaper collections. One of the most enduring and passionate designers is Tricia Guild who founded Designers Guild in 1970. Almost 40 years later, Tricia continues to launch wonderfully creative collections and some of the latest designs are shown above. As always we will have new fabrics from a range of the best design companies.

Now Open on Saturdays
We are opening on Saturdays again from this week. Our hours are 10am to 1pm. As always appointments can be made outside these hours.
