There's been masses of publicity – and products – around the Underground's 150th anniversary – we featured Horace Taylor's Brightest London reissue earlier in the week. But, perhaps the best tie-in yet is Fired Earth's London Underground collection based on some of the Tube's best tilework.
Kevin McCloud, more commonly know for poking around building projects on Channel 4's Grand Designs, has created a range of Mid-Century style paint colours for Fired Earth.
Inspired by the upcoming 60th anniversary of The Festival of Britain, the collection includes six authentic shades to capture the spirit of the iconic event. From the zingy Race Yellow to the more muted Skylon Grey, the range is the perfect finishing touch to any aspiring 50s home.
Prices start at £29.50 for a 2.5L can. Visit the website for more details.
