Redbrick Mill, Batley

I've made a couple of trips to Redbrick Mill lately as it's a nice place for checking out the latest trends in furniture and interior design. There's a good mix of alternative interiors stuff and I would recommend it for a rainy weekend if you want some inspiration or if you've got a spare wad of cash and fancy something special for your home.

It is a bit unusual to find a trendy interiors place like this in Batley, West Yorkshire which was once a prosperous mill town but nowadays is somewhat less grand, however it is nice to see regeneration of a place like this and it would probably be lost in a big city like Leeds.

See below for an interesting article from the Yorkshire Post that gives a good background to the idea behind this interior design outlet and Stephen Battye, the guy behind the idea.

We have learnt that people are blown away when they see Heuga on the floor in a room setting but it's a bit difficult to get this kind of display in a traditional carpet store so we are looking at new types of places to show off our products and looking to place them in the stylish kind of environment that they deserve. Maybe one day we'll get some of our stuff in a place like this - I'll keep you posted!
