How and why the poppy system works

How and why the poppy system works

Art shouldn’t be the boss of the room, it's meant to live with you. It shouldn’t lock you into one mood, one layout or one perfect spot on the wall. With poppy, art is like your creative cohort - something you can move, remix and reimagine any time the mood strikes. Instead of being a rigid, untouchable object telling you how your home should remain, poppy is like your creative little friend - a little design sidekick to play with.

Here’s how the system works:

1. Choose your base
Select a framed steel sheet for the wall or a poppy box for shelves and tables - beautiful timber and steel flat packable bases made to show off your magnetic tiles. No tools, no fuss. The boxes slot together and multitask beautifully for displaying art tiles, floral displays, storage and more. Attach the optional spinning base for a dynamic little design addition.

2. Pick your tiles
Each tile is hand-painted, small-batch, and magnetised.
Choose by palette (warm, cool, soft, bright) by theme, or mix absolutely everything if that’s your vibe. If you hadn't already picked it up, poppy is an anagram for pick out painted pieces yourself so you can really play with your interiors. Fresh releases will keep the possibilities growing, but if you fall head-over-heels for your very first arrangement, don’t worry - the industrial-strength magnets will hold your masterpiece firmly in place.

3. Rearrange anytime
Slide tiles around. Swap them out. Change them whenever you change bed sheets, or your cushions... or your mind!
Poppy is deliberately commitment-free — it’s interior styling that behaves like play.

4. Add to your collection over time
Seasonal drops, one-off originals, limited editions — Poppy is designed to grow with you.

Your walls should never feel stuck.
With poppy, they’re allowed to change their mind.
