The Magic of Artistic Expression

We're endlessly energized and inspired by the works of our fellow creatives. A big part of that magic lies in discovering the multitude of ways artists create their works. The following artists each possess unique and innovative approaches to their creative expressions and we love seeing them paired alongside our textile collections.

Stitch_Squiggle2021HolidayMoodboards_AnnieSubtitles_2-1Life is all about balance—finding it and learning to apply it to our lives—and sculptor Annie Morris's precariously placed, sky-high orbs are gently placed one on top of the other to soaring heights to signify our ability to persevere through connectedness. Her color palette is often primary and boldly saturated, and perfectly poised to pair with our spectrum of rich sea greens, rusty reds, and true blues.

Textiles Shown Above:

Fushion Cobalt, Wool Satin Mint Capri, Swing Velvet Ink, Gradient Velvet Beach, Ola Seaglass, Pemba Coast Jewel, Treasure Hunt Cobalt, Lyda Blue Light, Arabella Persimmon, Tiera Oceanic, Mori Satin Azure

2021HolidayMoodboards_HattieSubtitles_3-1Known for her playful and energetic approach to floral design, Aussie florist Hattie Malloy wows with every wildly, colorful arrangement she creates. In addition to her highly pigmented blooms, the Melbourne native dabbles in set design, styling, weddings and events, and finds inspiration through her local community by supporting local growers at every opportunity. Her powerful floral vibes have us reaching into our fabric library for deep magentas, delicate mauves, and playful pinks.
