Description
Birds of a feather flock together in this colourful graphic print, 'A Thousand Birds' by artist Kubistika. This fine art-quality print on 210gsm acid-free archival paper is framed in black-finish obeche wood with an acrylic glaze that's optically the same as glass. Ready to hang on your wall, it's made in the UK in an exclusive size for John Lewis & Partners. Berlin-based designer Boris Draschoff aka Kubistika creates art that follows the literal translation of the Greek word ‘kaleidoscope', meaning ‘observation of beautiful forms'. Simplifying subjects, he reduces them to their essentials. Whether he is restructuring shapes and colours along cubist lines, or creating awesomely outrageous pop-artsy collages in a playground of pastels, he can always be trusted to turn your perspective around. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
I love this piece because it offers a bold pop of colour with the vibrant yellow, making it an excellent statement for both modern and minimal interiors. Its simple, clean design works well in contemporary spaces, but it could also bring a fresh twist to scandi or pared-back schemes. To style it effectively, consider hanging it above a neutral sofa or within a gallery wall for added visual interest. Pairing it with natural wood accents or other muted tones can help create a balanced look, while its size makes it versatile enough to work in both larger living rooms and more intimate spaces like hallways or bedrooms. Overall, it’s a great way to inject some sunshine into your home without overwhelming the surrounding decor.

About John Lewis
A Legacy of Innovation and Inclusion
John Lewis started as a small shop on London's Oxford Street in 1864. Today, it's part of a bigger family called the John Lewis Partnership, which also includes Waitrose stores.
What makes them special is that they're owned by their employees, known as 'Partners'. The idea, from the beginning, was to give everyone a say in how the business was run. With over 74,000 Partners (employees) at the heart of its operations, the essence of John Lewis's vision, from over a century ago, still echoes today being the largest employee-owned venture.
Adapting to Changing Times
Like many stores, John Lewis has had to change with the times. They've closed some shops but have grown their online business a lot, especially when more people started shopping online during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Their history is filled with key moments, like buying Peter Jones in 1905, adding Waitrose in 1937, and starting their website in 2001. They've always tried to adapt and stay relevant.
Commitment to a Greater Purpose
John Lewis believes in doing good and making the world a better place. This is seen in the way they treat their employees and customers. For example, in 2021, they were the first big UK store to give parents six months paid leave when they have a baby and two weeks paid leave if they lose a pregnancy. They've been around for over a century and always aim to do the right thing by everyone.
