Opened in 1889, The Scottish National Portrait Gallery, designed by Sir Robert Rowand Anderson, is one of Edinburgh’s most outstanding buildings. In December 2011 the gallery re-opened following a period of dramatic renovation.
To help mark the union of old and new, Timorous Beasties were commissioned to create a collection of home accessories inspired by some of the gallery’s most iconic portraits, including Robert Burns, Bonnie Prince Charlie, Queen Anne, Mary Queen of Scots, and James VI.
Housing wonderful collections in decorative & fine arts, medieval manuscripts, numismatics and entomology, Blackburn Museum and Art Gallery was one of the first museums to open outside London in 1874.
TB were commissioned by publisher Profile Books to create some twisted toile inspired illustrations for Sarah Perry's new book 'Essex Girls - For Profane and Opinionated Women Everywhere'.
Timorous Beasties’ Tree of Life design was applied in brilliant colour on optically clear vinyl to create a transparent spatial distinction between the upstairs café and the downstairs office suite in the Stratford Market Station building, East London.
In 2018 Timorous Beasties collaborated with leather expert Bill Amberg to create a colourful digitally printed hide.
