Surface View have a wonderful new Natural History collection, inspired, just as we are, by antique encyclopaediae, vintage botanical prints and cabinets of curiosity. From delicate studies of ferns and trees to bright birds throwing curious shapes and macabre and mysterious skulls, there's something for every taste, and it's an easy and affordable way of updating a plain wall.
