Retro

At Kahn Design we are always looking at new beautiful fabrics for lifestyle products and unique interiors.

This is a seat that we created with a retro feel with great British roots.

The trim is 100% British Wool from a local supplier, Abraham Moons. The trim has a natural base colour, with aqua blue & burnt orange flashes.

Abraham Moons is one of the leading suppliers of luxurious British wool based fabrics in the UK and beyond. We have some exciting projects coming up with Moons and if you follow the blog you can keep updated easily.

The leather used for  these seats is a beautiful Scottish hide. This particular leather boasts a metallic finish and would make a rare and eye- catching addition to any cherished vehicle.

The seat possesses Kahn Designs most desirable interior trim, the diamond quilting. 

The next blog will be a behind the scenes shoot.

Taxi for Teale

1938 Austin 12/4 Landaulet 'Flashlot' Taxicab

This week I wanted to blog about a new edition to the Kahn showroom in Leeds.

This taxi was speeding around London throughout the war and into the 1950s!

The vehicle has been in a museum in Canada until 1999, then has been on display at the Exmoor Classic Car Museum in Porlock, Somerset, which acquired it in 2002.
 So how did it end up in Leeds?
Well, my boss has a love for vehicles and when he saw this in a auction he fell in love!

Finished in blue over black, with leather interior trim and black hood.

 
I personally love the classic look of this vehicle, complete with luggage, and taxi fare meter. Beautifully British.
