Current. Design & Homeware

Current., design inspired by coast and mountain

Current. Design & Homeware is an Irish online store that sells design objects and homeware based on a recurring motif: the natural landscapes that surround the brand. Its catalogue is organised into several collections and revolves around the idea of bringing the outdoors in.

The product that the company itself presents as its flagship is the tide clock, designed around coastal destinations in Ireland and the UK. The selection of locations is extensive and each clock bears the name of the place that inspires it.

Tide clocks and moon clocks

The clock range includes tide clocks and moon clocks. Among the tide models that appear in the catalogue are Blackrock (Salthill), Sandymount, Bull Wall, Greystones, Rosslare, Dingle, Rosses Point, Fenit, Kilkee, Fountainstown, Banna Beach, Ballybunion, Ballycotton, Aberporth, Worthing and Brighton, as well as the Ripple and Ripple Dark Blue variants and a Nautical model. The price indicated for these clocks is €67.

Contour Collection: heavy-based whiskey glasses

The Contour Collection brings together heavy-based whiskey glasses whose shape reproduces the profile of specific reliefs, so that the silhouette of the landscape is held in the hand. The models cited are The Great Sugarloaf, Croagh Patrick, Carrauntoohil, Nephin, Galtymore and Errigal, all in set format, and Cliffs of Moher in single glass format. The price indicated for this collection is €74.

Drift Collection: scented candles

The Drift Collection is a line of scented candles inspired by natural landscapes and composed of three distinct fragrances: Mountain Trail, Atlantic Breeze and River Alder. The Atlantic Breeze candle appears in the catalogue at a price of €35.

Stationery, bags and other objects

Among the lifestyle offerings, Between Tides stands out, a diary that the brand describes as the first of its kind designed for those who live by the sea: its daily pages record high and low tides, moon phase, sunrise and sunset, among other data. The Dublin Bay Between Tides Diary model appears at a price of €35.

The range is completed with durable canvas tote bags for everyday use, including The Tidal Tote (€19) and the topographic versions Great Sugar Loaf, Carrauntoohil, Djouce, Bray and Glendalough (€23), as well as an hourglass called The 1% Hourglass (€29) and various bundles and gift sets.

A catalogue organised by place

The store structures much of its range through an interactive map that allows searching by location. Each clock, glass or bag is linked to a swim spot, a shoreline or a summit, and the search tool distinguishes between two groups: swim spots and shorelines, on the one hand, and mountains and landmarks, on the other. The brand also accepts suggestions for new locations from customers.

International sales and currencies

The website allows you to select country and currency, with options for Australia (Australian dollar), Ireland (euro), Italy (euro), United Kingdom (pound sterling) and United States (US dollar). The checkout process accepts payment via Shop Pay and PayPal, and the platform identifies the company under the trading name Current.
