Celestial bodies drift across dark expanse: planets rendered in simplified form, stars scattered between orbital paths, cosmic phenomena abstracted into approachable imagery. Galaxy translates astronomical scale into domestic decoration where wonder meets bedroom walls.
The pattern depicts stylized planetary systems, each celestial object given distinct colour and surface detail. Ringed planets echo Saturn, cratered spheres suggest moons, swirling nebulae appear as colour clouds. The background reads as deep space—navy or black depending on colourway—punctuated by white star points. Scale varies across elements: larger planets anchor composition whilst smaller satellites and asteroids fill negative space. The aesthetic balances scientific reference with playful interpretation, avoiding strict astronomical accuracy in favour of imaginative appeal.
Printed in Cornwall with particular attention to the contrast between luminous celestial bodies and dark space background, ensuring planets read clearly against their void.
Galaxy serves children's rooms where imagination outweighs restraint. The cosmic theme suits both genders and spans age ranges from toddler through pre-adolescence. Consider single feature walls to prevent the dark background from overwhelming small rooms. Pairs effectively with simple furniture and adequate lighting to balance the pattern's inherent darkness.

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.
