I studied Digital Print design with a specific interest in wallpaper design for luxury interiors. My final collection Discovering Wonderland is built on a foundation of the revived trend for Victoriana and explores the place of insects in design in comparison with florals and butterflies. I have always been fascinated by insects, by their colours and their shapes and this collection presented me with an opportunity to question why butterflies are so common and almost a cliché in design, but insects are seen as ugly and something to be kept out of the house rather than celebrated within. Discovering Wonderland was also inspired by my undergraduate dissertation topic which explored the relationship between interior decoration and installation art; the collection aims to create fully immersive environments with some designs merging the two genres further by incorporating 3d design through techniques such as paper folding and 3d embellishment. I love colour and maximalism and create bold designs which add elements of fun and whimsy to people’s homes, making them a place where they love to spend their time. I find a lot of my inspiration in nature and focus mainly on botanical and animal imagery but add an individuality to them through my use of vivid colours and hidden elements. I love painting and illustration and my work celebrates these skills; I believe that hand crafting my motifs emphasises my passion for design and demonstrates it within my work through the textures and unique colours. I’m aiming to start working in the creative industry either continuing as an illustrator and print designer or branching out in to magazine editorial with a long term view of starting my own wallpaper and home furnishings brand. I can be contacted via my email address and my social media where more of my work and the behind the scenes creation can also be found.
