About
I am a 2024 graduate in Print Design and Textiles, with a passion for creating innovative and visually compelling patterns. My work is deeply rooted in sustainability, focusing on the use of eco-friendly materials and techniques. Through my designs, I aim to merge aesthetics with environmental responsibility, crafting textiles that are as kind to the planet as they are beautiful. Whether exploring traditional methods or experimenting with cutting-edge technologies, I am dedicated to pushing the boundaries of sustainable fashion andinteriors gallery work in textile design.
harmonious nature’s rhythms
This project delves into the serene beauty of meadows and marshes, showcasing the harmonious interplay of biodiversity within these vital ecosystems. Through textile design, capturing the vibrant rhythms of nature, inspired by the delicate flora and fauna that thrive in these environments. The prints in this collection reflect the rich textures and subtle colour palettes of meadows and marshes, aiming to evoke a sense of tranquility and connection to these often-overlooked landscapes. Each design is a tribute to the balance and diversity that these natural spaces embody, highlighting the need for their preservation. Credits to photographer Denisa ILie Model Georgia Richardson
