Base
Geometric forms emerge through tonal gradation, subtle dimensional effects created purely through colour manipulation without illustrative shading. Base employs restrained visual vocabulary where shape and tone generate spatial perception through optical suggestion rather than explicit rendering.
The pattern likely comprises simple geometric elements—perhaps hexagons, triangles, or abstract angular forms—arranged in repetitive structure. Dimensional illusion emerges from careful tonal progression: lighter values suggesting surfaces facing imagined light source, darker tones indicating recessed areas or shadow. The effect reads subtle rather than dramatic, three-dimensionality perceived peripherally rather than immediately obvious. Colour palette maintains restraint across colourways: monochromatic variations, muted neutrals, or soft chromatic schemes preventing the dimensional effect from reading theatrical. This subtlety distinguishes the pattern from bold 1980s dimensional graphics, instead offering contemporary minimalism with textural interest.
Printed in Cornwall with precise tonal control maintaining the gradual colour shifts essential to creating dimensional perception without graphic illustration.
Base suits minimalist interiors requiring visual interest without pattern assertiveness. Living rooms, bedrooms, offices where wall treatment provides texture whilst maintaining restraint appropriate to minimal aesthetics. The subtle dimensional effect adds depth preventing flat monotony without disrupting colour discipline or visual calm. Works as full room application or feature walls; the restrained character prevents overwhelming even continuous coverage. Pairs with minimal contemporary furnishings, monochromatic or neutral schemes where subtle pattern provides relief from complete plainness.

Botanical Prints: From Pressed Specimens To Contemporary Wallpaper
Botanical illustration began as scientific documentation, artists translating three-dimensional plants into flat images serving both informational and aesthetic purposes. This exploration traces the journey from pressed herbarium specimens and watercolour expeditions to contemporary wallpaper, examining how printing techniques evolved from copperplate engraving through William Morris' screen printing to digital reproduction whilst maintaining essential character: beauty emerging from accuracy rather than imposed upon it.

Woven Ground: The Cultural Geography of Handmade Rugs
Handwoven rugs carry geography in their fibres. The wool came from specific mountains where specific plants fed specific sheep; the dyes derive from regional botanicals; the patterns preserve cultural memory encoded in visual language. From Persian workshop medallions to Berber mountain abstractions to Scandinavian restraint, each tradition represents centuries of accumulated knowledge, techniques refined through generations. This investigation explores how materials shaped by landscape, methods passed like recipes, and patterns carrying meaning beyond decoration create the ground beneath our feet.
