Our Story

Our Story

Founded by photographer Louisa Tratalos in late 2022, Colours of Arley was born from a love of storytelling and a passion for creating unique, meaningful objects for the spaces in which we inhabit.

From Patch
to Patterns

It all began during lockdown when Louisa rehomed Patch, a scruffy terrier, and set out to find the perfect stripe to make him a throne worthy of his new Hackney life. The search proved more challenging than expected, sparking the idea for a brand dedicated to helping others bring their personal stories to life through bespoke stripes.

Every Stripe
Tells a story

Colours of Arley now offers bespoke stripes for curtains, headboards, upholstery, and accessories and each stripe is as unique as the story it represents. Transitioning from a career in photography, Louisa remains inspired by telling the stories of the stripes and celebrating those who commission them.
