The new Art Meets Matter notebooksA new range of Swallows and Amazons themed products will be becoming available in the second half of 2012.

Designed by the innovative design company, Art Meets Matter, the products are all based on the iconic Jonathan Cape book covers for Swallows and Amazons, Winter Holiday, Pigeon Post and We Didn’t Mean to Go to Sea, which were originally published between 1930 and 1937.

Samples of the new book cover beach chairs and cushionsThe Trust was pleased to be able to show samples of several items at the recent Holker Hall Garden Festival. At that date only the notebooks were available for sale, but the beach chairs and cushions should be available from Art Meets Matter’s website soon.  Other forthcoming products are likely to include mugs, deck chairs, jigsaws and stretched canvas wall prints.
