Olympic Fever...

London and indeed the world is currently in the grip of olympic fever. The London bid was sealed by a promise to inspire the next generation to get involved in sport. Here at d'Erlanger and Sloan we feel we should do our bit to encourage this wonderful initiative.
Although interior design and sporting greatness may not seem to have a natural connection we believe in the positive influence of your surroundings. Therefore if we can help motivate you to add a little olympic spirit to your home, whether it be confined to your children's bedrooms or allowed into the wider surroundings, we hope it will help fuel the sporting dreams of the younger generation (and just maybe get the rest of us out on a run... )

Framed Vintage Olympic posters, would look wonderful up a stairwell or in a playroom

Sure to bring a smile in any cloakroom and inspire you out for a quick knock up. Find many more like this at Antiques by design

For any aspiring equestrian girl this surely has to be the wallpaper of choice, from Rocket St George

Sadly not an Olympic sport being truly British so worth a mention, keep cricket alive with these wonderful Chloe Alberry door handles

For those at a loose end during the summer holidays I couldn't resist this  fantastic cup cake set, surely an excuse to throw an olympic party

Would look fantastic in any study, boxing glove lamps, from Antiques by Design

This fencing wall light will hopefully shine some light on a much overlooked sport
