Redecorating?

Do muggers, flies and foetuses fit your theme? The Timorous Beasties have just the wallpaper for you.
One critic described their work as William Morris on acid, though to my eye they're more like Damien Hirst on Ovaltine. "The imagery in the original French toiles from the 18th century is actually quite shocking," says McAuley. "They have scenes of workers womanising, smoking and drinking. What we've done, in the Glasgow toile, is update the imagery. So a pipe becomes a rollie, an old man sitting on a stool in a rural scene becomes a tramp on a park bench, a glass of wine becomes a can of super lager."
