Roomytown has a process that begins with discovery. They source centuries-old illustrations from antique books, museum archives and flea markets, drawn to pieces with character, detail, and a sense of intrigue. Back in their Bath studio in the UK, each design is carefully restored and reinterpreted — preserving its essence while giving it a fresh, contemporary perspective.
