The pieces they hold are truly amazing using mixtures of printing techniques to produce different prints. One piece of furniture used digital printing for the more intricate designs and then it was layered with screen printing, which used bold mono prints on top of the more elaborate designs.
Timorous Beasties
Timorous beasties was one of the designers I was told to research in to after visiting my chosen merchandiser. John Richards (co owner of Jane Richards) led me in the right direction with my work. Explaining which routes would lead me to success if I wish to continue with pattern design. He explained how pattern design is becoming more in-depth and more bizarre with the use of digital printing and ability edit and distort images. It was also suggested that collaboration is a route that is becoming more popular. I believe this is a good idea because of the different styles of working two people may have. If i was to collaborate with a person I would go out of my comfort zone and chose someone who has a different style to me. Possibly an illustrator which does refined and detailed work.
NLXL
NLXL are a Dutch interior designer which uses a mixture of realistic images and illustrations to produce fun and humorous designs for wallpapers. That are used to produce an exciting atmosphere for the viewer. As i progress in pattern design I hope to produce something more to this style using still life objects as a focus point which will captivate the viewer, pulling them in to different focus points of the wall paper. John Richards advised me to follow the route of wall paper because of how demanded it is becoming. Also it will be a bigger surface to work with giving me more space to work with letting my designs become more in-depth and random.
