Timorous Beasties

About Contact Head Office Showroom

Timorous Beasties design and print studio was established in 1990 by Alistair McAuley and Paul Simmons. From the outset, their successive textile and wallpaper collections vividly redefined the identity of interiors.

Today, their collections and bespoke designs ornament and furnish hospitality, residential and commercial spaces, from interiors to exteriors, using a universal range of techniques and materials: hand-printed and digital wallpapers and fabrics; vinyl, lighting, rugs, ceramics, concrete, stone and metal.
