Rectangular forms stack and scatter in arrangements suggesting construction toy logic. Bilt translates children's building blocks into two-dimensional pattern where primary colours and varied scales create compositional rhythm through apparent randomness.
The pattern depicts blocks in multiple dimensions—some appearing as single units, others as assembled groups, creating illusion of depth through perspective and overlap. Primary and secondary colours dominate: red, blue, yellow, green, orange recalling classic wooden or plastic construction toy palettes. Block sizes vary within controlled range, preventing monotonous uniformity whilst maintaining visual cohesion. The arrangement reads as deliberately casual—blocks appearing scattered or mid-construction—yet underlying grid structure prevents actual chaos. This aesthetic references childhood play spaces and educational toy design where colour coding and geometric form support developmental learning translated here into decorative application.
Printed in Cornwall with precise colour boundaries maintaining the crisp edges essential to block-based geometric patterns.
Bilt suits children's rooms, playrooms, nurseries where toy-inspired themes feel developmentally appropriate and visually stimulating. The bright primary colours and playful composition create energetic environments suited to active spaces rather than calm sleeping zones. Scale remains moderate, suitable for smaller rooms without overwhelming intimate spaces. Works alongside toy storage, play furniture, primary-coloured textiles reinforcing the childhood construction theme. The pattern's inherent cheerfulness suits spaces embracing colour without restraint.

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.
