Published work! HOLLIS featured in Printed Textile Design

Just returned from a very fabulous trip to Paris to find out that my work is featured in the new Amanda Briggs-Goode book, Printed Textile Design. An older design of mine 'Hollis' has pride of place across the contents page, and later featured on the same page with William Morris and Lucienne Day - pretty happy with that! On sale now through Laurence King Publishing Ltd

Home London show

Starting to gear up for Home-London in January where I will be launching my new wallpaper and fabric collection 'DECADENCE'. From now until then you'll see a few sneak snippets, but you'll be able to see the collection in its full glory at the show, I'll be at stand E49 in the Homegrown section.

Exciting start to the week!

New colour way wallpaper samples finally arrived in my some of my top selling designs! YUM! 

London wall mural

After my week in Paris I jumped straight into working on a three day private wall mural in London. The brief was set to work in a masculine space using a tonal colour palette and featuring a combination of previous work. This is the first mural I have done in years and I thoroughly enjoyed it, and had great feedback from a happy client at the end.

Paris trip...

For the past week I've had the privilage of working for a friends fashion textile studio Milkprint based in London. The studio exhibited at the huge fashion trade show Indigo in Paris. Amongst the most exhausting working days at the show (anyone who has exhibited at a trade show knows the level of tiredness I'm talking about!), I managed to get some fancy snap shots. I even bumped into fashion designer John Rocha on my lunch break! What a placid chappy! My favourite studio from the whole show was Mirjam Rouden who's textile designs I would cover every inch of my home with! http://www.mirjamrouden.com/

LUXE magazine photoshoot
