Established in Bowness-on-Windermere in 2013 and now proudly located in Windermere, Impressarum offers a unique collection of organic cotton t-shirts, sweatshirts, and hoodies designed for people who love the Lake District as much as we do.

Our collection is crafted with care — using superior quality organic cotton, screen printed by hand in Cumbria with eco-friendly, water-based inks. All our Lake District designs are limited editions of just 100 pieces.

We also feature thought-provoking t-shirts by other British designers who share our love for creativity, originality, and sustainable values.

Hi, I’m Helly, the founder of Impressarum. My journey began with a deep love for art, design, and the beautiful Lake District.

I owned Church Street Gallery in Saffron Walden for six years before my family and I moved to the North West in 2012. In 2013, we opened The Mere Gallery in Bowness — an art gallery showcasing original prints alongside a small range of hand screen-printed t-shirts.

Away With The Spoon

Sterling silver statement jewellery with repurposed attitude, designed and handcrafted by me, Helly Baynham.

Each one-of-a-kind piece is recycled and up-cycled from antique sterling silver with a history, a story, a connection with the past — often Victorian Gothic.

Much of the collection is oxidised to highlight texture and create a bold, dark aesthetic. These designs have lavish weight, notable proportions, and aren’t afraid to be seen and heard.

Our shop also features selected collections from other talented British designers who share our ethos.
