Abstract forms scatter across the surface like cut paper collage, each shape irregular and hand-drawn in character. Craft channels the aesthetic of children's art-making: spontaneous marks, uneven edges, colours applied without precise boundaries.
The pattern comprises organic shapes—rounded blobs, angular fragments, curving lines—arranged in loose composition. Colours vary by colourway but maintain playful brightness: primary combinations or softer pastel variations. Scale reads large, individual shapes substantial enough to register as distinct elements rather than merging into texture. The naive quality comes from deliberately imperfect execution: wobbly outlines, irregular fills, asymmetrical forms that reject geometric precision. This aesthetic references mid-century Scandinavian design and contemporary illustration trends valuing handmade imperfection over digital smoothness.
Printed in Cornwall with attention to preserving the hand-drawn quality, avoiding over-refinement that would contradict the pattern's essential character.
Craft suits children's rooms, playrooms, creative studios where informality and colour feel appropriate. The large scale requires adequate wall space; consider single feature walls behind beds or in play zones. The pattern's energy suits active spaces better than calm sleeping areas. Works alongside simple furniture allowing the wall to provide visual interest.

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.
