Kepler Lampshades

Another exciting day today! There's nothing more thrilling to me than to see my designs on beautiful products. So, I'm delighted to announce that my 'Folk' design is now among the Kepler collection recently launched in UK by lovely Ruth McAllister. Ruth is the founder of Quincy Lampshades, a place where big, bold and bright designs banish boring lampshades for good.

The Kepler range is a brand new collection, eclectic, but cohesive, with designs in a variety of styles tied together by a beautiful palette of colours that compliments any room. Each single lampshade is made by hand in UK, using the best materials and quality fabrics. The Kepler collection is now available online here. I hope you'll love it as much as I do.

Tigerprint - Patterned Type Competition Winning design

I'm very happy today, I won the Patterned Type competition set up by the amazing team at Tigerprint. Go see the other talented designers set to receive this months runner up prizes! This was an interesting brief, I had so much fun playing with typography, I doodled plenty of ideas before I decided on my winning alphabet, but I'm planning to take the time and develop them all further. Thank you, Tigerprinters! It's true, it was really great to push the boundaries of pattern and type.

Yaay!! I won!

Quincy Lampshades poll - Wish me luck!

A while ago and along with many designers from around the world, I participated in the contest that Quincy Lampshades held for the launching of a new and unique range of lampshades. The design brief was very specific as well as the colour palette. I really enjoyed working on it and I'm happy to say I got two designs selected and put up for voting today. Please take a look here and vote for the best design.
Thank you and until next time, have a great one!

Doodling

Lately I spend more time doodling and I love it! I thought I'd show you some of my latest doodles. I used the same color palette and make them work as a collection.

And so it begins...

Hopefully my little fairy will magically melt the snow...
