Quadrille has acquired Wild Isle Style from Banjo Beale, an interior designer who won the BBC One series “Interior Design Masters” in 2022.
Sophie Allen, senior commissioning editor, acquired world rights from Ben Clark at the Soho Agency. Wild Isle Style will publish on 12th October 2023.
The publisher says: “Living on the remote island of Mull has inspired Banjo to be resourceful and inventive in his design outlook. With sustainability and budget in mind, he combines vintage finds with clever design and re-purposes the old, re-imagining it into something new.
“From contemporary to classic, his spaces are characterful, curated and eco-conscious. In Wild Isle Style, Banjo encourages people to give design a go and create their own signature style.”
Beale, also the star of the recent six-part BBC show “Designing the Hebrides” , as well as a judge on “Scotland’s Home of the Year”, said: “Wild Isle Style is my roadmap for embarking on a design adventure, where we throw out the rule book and meet the colourful characters behind spaces that don’t cost the earth.
“I can’t wait for everyone to meet the collectors, thinkers and tinkerers, from the Hebrides to Antipodes, who have opened up their world to share how we can all create cool, calm and collected interiors.”
Allen added: “Ever since Banjo appeared on ’Interior Design Masters’, I knew he was a star. His warmth and creative talent shine off every page of Wild Isle Style. He gives you permission to have fun with your design space and encourages a resourceful mindset to combine natural elements and collected pieces to make your interiors sing.”
