About
I am a surface print and pattern designer, specialising in furnishing design. My prints and patterns are designed for upholstery fabrics and home furnishings. Inspired by geometric shape found within architecture and heritage. My work is often inspired by Bradford's textile heritage taking colour and shape inspiration from mill architecture and industrial machinery. My work uses weaving in a traditional and contemporary sense, creating digital concepts using the traditional use of warp and weft. As well as weaving and dyeing wool felt for acoustic solutions. Working closely with the The Society of Dyers and Colourists to explore their archive for colour inspiration.
Exploring how weave can be translated into digital design, using shape to reflect the weft and warp of woven fabrics. Repeatedly using rectangles to imitate the weave and weft of fabric while working within a digital realm. Using a colour palette derived from primary imagery at the Society Of Dyers And Colourists archive in Bradford. A secondary collection for my graduate project.
