Working from a studio in Bath, Roomytown uncovers antique engravings, botanical illustrations, and vintage typography, reimagining them for modern living. Each piece begins with authentic archival imagery, thoughtfully recoloured, layered, and adapted for today’s interiors. Produced in small batches using FSC-certified paper, organic cotton, and enamel, their designs blend heritage, craftsmanship, and contemporary function.
