Weekend Wind-Down Edward Bulmer Natural Paint curates our latest Walpole Weekend Wind-Down playlist

After a high-pressure week of meetings, management and making connections, the best way to unwind is to plug in your headphones and allow a superb selection of tunes to take your brain far away from the world of work. Enter the Walpole Weekend Wind-Down: a monthly playlist of tracks created by one of our members or partners that will help you transition into an end-of-week headspace.

This November, our playlist has been created by Edward Bulmer, Founder of eponymous pioneering plant based paint company. Edward Bulmer Natural Paint uses natural ingredients and gentle chemistry to challenge the petrochemical products of mainstream, making the industry more sustainable one tin at a time.

"Nostalgia and emotional connection – music is that universal trigger," explains Edward. "Nothing else really means so many different things to so many different people." His playlist reflects the songs he and Emma Bulmer, his wife and CEO of Edward Bulmer Natural Paint, listen to at their beautiful home in the ethereal Court of Noke, where they spend their weekends with their beloved dog, Lennie.
