The ‘AU’ is the UK-based interiors stylist Anna Unwin. AU has forged a reputation as being the place to source bespoke pieces that complement simple but refined interior spaces.
The tightly edited collection includes antique, mid century and vintage objects. Each piece has been chosen because of its strong design as well as its idiosyncrasy. Anna specialises in identifying objects that fit seamlessly into any interior, be it contemporary or more traditional. Every item in the inventory has been owned and valued previously and therefore carries an innate history and longevity which has withstood the test of time and transcends passing design trends.
Some of the collection is subtle in its appeal; some is rare and even unique. However, each piece is sustainably sourced. Anna ascribes just as much worth to an object’s environmental and ethical credentials as she does to its quality and beauty.
The AU collection of furniture, lighting, textiles and objects is not simply beautiful; mostly handcrafted using skills passed down by generations and culturally revered, the pieces also exemplify a production model anchored by a fundamental appreciation of artisans and their craft.
Anna’s refined ‘eye’, as well as her extensive experience as an interior stylist and her background in textiles, enables her to discover those unique pieces - antique, mid century or vintage - that create a special dialogue between space, colour and form.
The site will be regularly updated as newly sourced pieces are added to the AU collection.
