Made in Edinburgh
We’re inspired every day by our city, built on thousands of years of human civilization. From Bronze Age settlements to 12th-century monuments and Enlightenment institutions, Edinburgh has been a bastion of tradition and a leader in human innovation for centuries.
Houselore was born from the desire to share and preserve European history while advocating for sustainable living in the face of ‘fast deco’ that is harming the Earth and its people. We believe that treasure can be found anywhere, if you know how to look.
