Learn About Our Artisan Homewares Studio
Welcome to ZIA LIVING — an independent, small‑batch homewares studio specialising in homewares, artisan custom‑coloured fabrics and handcrafted lampshades. From our North Norfolk studio, we create fabric‑led designs that celebrate colour and pattern. Every cushion, lampshade and textile piece begins with original handcrafted artwork bringing warmth, personality and joyful style into your home.
The Story Behind Zia Living
ZIA LIVING began in Norfolk, growing naturally from a love of interiors, colour and thoughtful, fabric‑led design. What started as a personal creative practice has evolved into a growing homewares studio, known for its handcrafted lampshades, custom‑coloured fabrics and contemporary prints.
Each design begins with a hand-drawn sketch and a test lino print to explore shape, texture and rhythm. From organic motifs to clean geometric patterns, every collection is developed using a blend of traditional mark‑making and modern digital techniques. This approach allows us to create fabrics in your chosen colours, tailored to complement your home or interiors project.
Our inspiration is rooted both in the Norfolk coastline — our home — with its native plants, flowers and quiet details of everyday life, and in my cosmopolitan heritage, which brings a love of bold pattern and modern simplicity. We work closely with specialist UK makers who print, stitch and assemble each piece with care, ensuring every item meets the high standards we hold for our craft.
Growing sustainably: We prioritise eco-minded processes, using British family—run textile printers. We print to order to minimise waste, sourcing natural fabrics and minimal packaging in recyclable and biodegradable materials.
