Degree Show

As Seen in Liberty.....

Thornback and Peel
Bluebellgray

On a recent trip to Liberty in London, I noticed new additions within the soft furnishings department from Thornback and Peel and Bluebellgray. I love the simplicity of Thornback and Peel's design portfolio. They print colourful, detailed illustrations upon white backgrounds to ensure that the focus is centred upon the print. I feel that this is an effective strategy which has resulted in the development of a successful, signature aesthetic. Conversely, I love the bright, painterly, gestural floral designs that feature upon Bluebellgray's array of interior products. The eyecatching, beautiful prints would definitely serve to enhance a domestic space.

Pulse 2010

Michelle Mason

Mr Wingate Prints

Jen Rowland

These are a few of the works that really appealed to me on a recent trip to Pulse at Earls Court, London. I was drawn to their individual, illustrative styles and use of bright, bold colour which enabled their work to really stand out.

Illustrative Design Content in Situ

Product Placement

Here's a couple of examples of how some of my colourful, abstracted designs could be used to decorate a range of interior products; cups, plates, bowls etc.

Design and Realisation

Throughout this year, I have designed prints for interior spaces. These images offer a few examples of how my work could sit in situ.

Urns

These illustrations of Italian urns are part of a design collection that has directly informed one of my wallpaper designs.

Irene Suchocki

I was drawn to these photos taken by Irene Suchocki as they are obviously inspired by her love of travel, which informs her practice. This is similar to my own work, which has been influenced by my travels.

Show Preparation

Printing onto Silk Twill.

Florentine Architecture

I have digitally developed my illustrations of key architectural features in Florence by adding blocks of colour, pattern and texture to add interest and depth to the image. I have chosen to frame them to give them a sense of definition, allowing them to effectively operate as statement prints.

Italian Statuette

Here are some compositional experiments to test the success of illustrative content in repeat, and alongside sections of pattern.

Preparation for Degree Show

Digital prints upon lining paper and wool delaine.
