Schumacher - design collaboration

I just saw the new Schumacher designer collaboration, with Alessandra Branca and I love it.

Born in Rome, Alessandra draws inspiration from the finest classical art and architecture, while using her sense of comfortable elegance and wit to revolutionize traditional patterns for a modern point of view.

Dramatic scale, playful textures, and a vibrant colour palette add a burst of energy making the fondly familiar damask, toile and Chinoiserie patterns fresh and exciting.

 

Can't wait to get my hands on the sampling....

Building on the success of his fabric collection, the internationally celebrity designer Martyn Lawrence Bullard introduces a collection of wallcoverings exclusively for Schumacher.

Inspired by his travels the collection bursting with bold, saturated colors and gorgeous, artful patterns. Prints in the collection evoke the timeless Ottoman motifs that Martyn witnessed in the graphic screens, painted panels and embellished tile decorating the majestic palaces of Turkey, Morocco and India.
