Beatrice Larkin textiles for The Buxton Hotel

The Buxton Hotel by Roberts and Treguer

London, E1 6TD

2019

Beatrice was approached by Roberts and Treguer to supply blankets in an exclusive colour way for the opening of The Buxton Hotel.

‘The design behind The Buxton is steeped in celebration of local craftsmanship and provenance, balanced with modern simplicity. Deeply passionate about preserving and restoring as much of our building’s original features as possible, we set out to respectfully bring them back to life with their own twist.

Named after Sir Thomas Fowell Buxton (1786-1845) who lived and worked in the area, we were inspired by the former owner of the Truman brewery, a man who dedicated his life to campaigning for human rights and raised money for the weavers of London who were being forced into poverty by the advancement in factory technology.

As a nod to the social reformer we take our name in homage to, there is a special focus on items from independent makers – including handwoven rugs and blankets made by local weavers.’

- Roberts and Treguer

In 1816 Buxton spoke at a meeting at the Mansion House in the City of London about conditions in Spitalfields, and raised £43,000 to aid the weavers who made up much of the population of the district, and who were close to starving because of a lack of work. As the years went on, technology advanced and Jacquard weaving was brought to the area. The branding of The Buxton is drawn directly from punch cards used in jacquard mills.


Beatrice’s focus on Jacquard weaving and playing with scale and structure fit well with this theme and her Rope design was chosen in a bright bold blue colour way.

Angela’s Rooms

Margate

2022

Bea’s move to Margate in 2021 was a changing point in her business. The close knit creative community of Margate has meant a number of collaborations and exciting projects. In 2022, Angela’s seafood restaurant developed guest rooms above their seafront premises with sustainability at the forefront.

‘Angela’s Rooms, like the restaurants, are designed to put our people and the planet first – and always with the future disposability of the materials in mind.
Angela's Rooms are situated above the restaurant looking out over Margate's harbour. There are three rooms, each with an en-suite shower room, and are furnished with the same ethos that we apply in the restaurant – to leave as small a footprint on the environment going forward as possible.’

Beatrice’s recycled cotton fabrics were used in this project, alongside other designers mycelium grown lamps, re-dyed waste wool rugs, cork floors, handmade wallpaper, recycled and bio-plastic furniture and even bone china cups made using waste fish bones from the restaurant
