Dunelm has been on fire when it comes to pumping out stylish new homeware, but its latest collaboration, partnering with British-Nigerian artist and designer Yinka Ilori MBE might just be the brand’s most colourful and vibrant yet. The limited-edition Dunelm x Yinka Ilori collection includes 40 pieces of furniture and homeware and I got a preview of the range IRL.

Living up to his nickname, the ‘architect of joy’, Yinka and his range is filled with bold patterns and joyful, summer-ready colours. He takes over the baton from the ‘queen of colour’, interior designer Sophie Robinson, who previously collaborated with Dunelm on three separate homeware collections.
