Description
A colourful architectural abstract print from Michelle Barratt. Made in the UK, the print comes with a mount and is glazed in a contemporary frame, ready to hang on your wall. Michelle Barratt's work is an exploration of the relationship between colour and geometry to create perfectly balanced compositions. Michelle was born in Latvia and has a background in architecture. The influence of Corbusier and the Bauhaus movement is evident in her pieces, of which one was selected for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2021. Have you thought about wall hooks and fittings?
Our Stylist Says
This Michelle Barratt piece, 'Unité Colour 03.02.', is a great example of modern abstract artwork that can really bring a contemporary edge to a space. I love how its bold, geometric colours and layered composition make it versatile for various interiors, especially minimal or Scandinavian styles where it can serve as a focal point. Practical styling tips include pairing it with simple, neutral furnishings to let the artwork stand out, or incorporating complementary accent colours in cushions or accessories for a cohesive look. Framing it in a sleek black border enhances its clean lines and ensures it suits both residential and commercial settings, adding a touch of sophistication without overwhelming the room.

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.
