Give your home an urban edge with these graffiti-inspired accessories.

1 Digital domain

Crafted from digitally printed wallpaper, these industrial-looking lampshades are handmade in the United Kingdom by designer Deborah Bowness. They come in large and medium versions, with patterns varying slightly on each piece.

2 ‘Tis the season

These funky salt-and-pepper shakers are shaped like spray cans, with graffiti-esque writing across their fronts. We can think of no cooler way to season our meals.

3 A royal redesign

For a more tongue-in-cheek take on the graffiti trend, check out the Monsieur Mint canvas print from Mineheart. A defaced image of Louis XVI blends “classic art with modern day mischief”, and will fit into any design scheme. It’s printed onto a high-quality canvas and available in three sizes.

4 No horsing around

There’s nothing subtle about this life-size, paint-splattered horse figurine. It stands 1.64 metres tall and weighs a whopping 53 kilograms, so it will make quite the statement in your living room.

5 An apple a day

These mini graffiti apples will look lovely lined up on your coffee table. We like the contrast between the delicate-looking shape and street-style paint job.
