Brief Introduction:

I am a designer based in London, and in 2012, I founded the home decor brand Melodi Horne Ltd. I started this business with the goal and commitment to creating products that I would love to have in my own home,  drawing inspiration from objects that have always been special to me in some way and have brought me happiness. I begun by designing lighting and lampshades with vibrant linen linings, especially as I have always been fascinated with lighting and how texture and colour affect the mood in a given space.  

As a child, I enjoyed analyzing the detail that went into objects of art and antiques and was fascinated with form, textures, fabrics and colours.  Often encouraged by my maternal grandmother to hand sew dresses for my dolls during play time,  using various forms of artistic expression became a way of life. As a result I developed my own ideas and style which I use imaginatively in my work and designs today. My love for sketching and painting, continues to play a significant role in my creative endeavors.

About Your Business:

Melodi Horne Ltd. specialize in creating unique and luxurious home decor items.Their handmade lampshades are known for their trademark,  vibrant coloured linen linings and exclusive fabrics. They design and manufacture a variety of other products such as cushions, small furniture, and handcrafted lamp bases.  Melodi Horne's mission is to reinvent and combine traditional aspects of design that can be used in any classic or contemporary setting offering versatility, style and character.  

All their work is produced in England in support of the cottage industry. Their in-house fabrics are printed in England, while specialty fabrics are sourced from around the world.

Melodi Horne offer a custom manufacturing service to designers and private clients.

Tenure at Buspace:

I moved into Buspace studios back in 2017 and have never looked back since.  I loved the location especially how it was very close to where we lived at the time.  We have since moved area but feel very fortunate to continue to have a foot in lively Notting Hill due to keeping a studio at Buspace.

Attraction to Buspace:

Having a studio in this gorgeous, industrial style building has been wonderful.  David our building manager is the heart and soul with his sunshine attitude and helpful demeanor.  I have loved watching Buspace evolve to a stylish, design hub filled with like minded creatives but equally hosting a variety of other businesses under one roof.  

It is easy for our clients to visit us and to find us since it is located very near to design based Golborne Road and bustling Portobello Road.  It’s a lively area with easy parking.

Describe Buspace:

Friendly,  interactive, super-cool 😎

Brief Introduction: Could you start by telling us a bit about yourself and your background in your business?

I started playing music at a very young age and always found myself gravitating to writing and composing. Creating random ideas on GarageBand or little voice notes has always fascinated me. I started writing music for small brands and independent filmmakers as an entry into the professional music world - this led to collaborating with artists in the independent soul music, hip-hop and R&B spaces. I found a real love for crafting records with artists, finding solutions to their creative ambitions, and helping people realise a creative vision.

‍

About Your Business: What is the core focus of your business, and what inspired you to start this venture?

The core focus has now become to work on projects with true, authentic creatives. Beyond creating, producing and writing the music with the artists, I also sometimes lean into supporting them with releases and effective strategies to get their music to the right audiences.

‍

Tenure at Buspace: How long have you been working out of Buspace Studios, and what has been your journey like here?

I have been at Buspace for about 4 years now, and it is a very important studio space for me. A lot of creative growth has come from working out of my unit.

‍

Attraction to Buspace: What initially attracted you to Buspace Studios and the area?

I was walking my dog past the building and saw a sign saying studios were available, I live nearby, it was dog friendly, and had a great music studio available. There is a rich musical history around these ways, so it feels good to be part of a community like that.

About Your Business:
Futsol is built on the idea that football is more than just a game—it’s a cultural force. We create apparel and experiences that resonate with a community who love football but also appreciate design, music, and art. The inspiration came from a deep love for the sport and a desire to craft a brand that reflects the romance, connection, and joy that football brings to people’s lives.

Tenure at Buspace:
We’ve been working out of Buspace Studios for almost a year, and it’s been a fantastic base for the brand’s growth. From developing collections to hosting creative sessions, it’s given us the space and energy to bring Futsol to life.

What initially drew me to Buspace was the creative energy of the space. It’s a hub for designers, artists, and entrepreneurs, and that kind of environment is invaluable when you’re building a brand. Plus, the location in West London offers a great mix of inspiration and accessibility.
