Design Focus: New Hadley

Bold, bright and undeniably Roger Oates, New Hadley is a timeless and colourful gem that has been part of our collection since 2001. In celebration of this iconic design, we delve into its history and look at three of its vivid colours for truly statement staircases.

A popular and recognisable staple since its introduction back in 2001, New Hadley is an evolution of our original ‘Hadley’ design – a wide repeating stripe created in 1994. After several years, the design was reinterpreted with a subtle variation in the rib and herringbone weave structure we see today – narrower, more refined proportions and a focus on bold colour.

This riot of zesty tones means New Hadley is undoubtably one of the most recognisable designs within our collection

Originally released in a number of classic neutral hues, New Hadley was recoloured by Roger and Fay in the mid 2000s with the bright, daring colours of Lime, Mandarin and Bright Rose. These zesty shades were a bold migration away from the more conventional tones popular at the time, inviting us all to be a little braver when introducing colour into the home.

 

 

 

 

Bright Rose

A versatile and recognisable pink, Bright Rose perfectly adapts to any statement scheme and even works seamlessly in both contemporary and heritage homes. Sophie Robinson showed us her colourful way of incorporating New Hadley within her eclectic hallway here.

 

 

 

 

Lime

With the ever popular trend of bringing the outside in, New Hadley Lime is a refreshing green that sits perfectly against the refined weave. Whether it is styled within a tonal green hallway or combined with natural wood and neutrals, Lime is an uplifting breath of fresh air. See how interiors lover and stylist Erica Davies integrated Lime into her botanical inspired entrance hall here.

 

 

 

 

Mandarin

Our Mandarin colourway delivers a shot of punchy orange in a South East London home (left) making an impact in an otherwise neutral scheme. This statement colour now features in the infamous stripes of our Fitzroy Bright. Not for the faint hearted, Mandarin looks fantastic in both paired back and intense, moody interiors.

This riot of acid tones has made New Hadley one of the most recognisable designs within our collection – these boldly coloured runners remain firm favourites with their undeniable Roger Oates handwriting.
