The latest economic and environmentally friendly options for heating your abode...
Many brands are experimenting with new, innovative materials that make your radiator far more energy effiient and eco-friendly. For example, Bisque offers a range of radiators crafted from recycled aluminium, which is incredibly lightweight, meaning they heat up and cool down far quicker than traditional steel radiators. High heat outputs allow for slimmer profiles, meaning they are great spacesaving options as well.

Come 2022, all new wood-burning stoves sold will need to meet with new Ecodesign regulations that requires much higher effiiencies and very low emissions.

You might think the process is purely creative, but designing knitted textiles requires a deep understanding of geometry and pattern calculations. It is intricate and often mathematical. I have learned that knitting demands a constant balance between artistry and engineering. Creating a new textile involves not only selecting colours and yarns but also considering the tensile strength, elasticity and drape of the material. That way, I ensure the final product is both aesthetically pleasing and functional. To me, this blend of creativity and technical precision is a fascinating aspect of knitted textile design.
