Creative direction & design leadership
Over ten years making beautiful, commercial product for the brands that matter in the home.
I'm a Senior designer leader, designer and surface pattern designer with over ten years across home, lifestyle and apparel, bedlinen, quilts, throws, rugs, ceramics, tabletop, sleepwear, knitwear — categories where the design has to earn its place on the shelf and in someone's home. I've worked with Piglet in Bed, Sanderson, Morris & Co., Made.com and Amara. Most recently I was Design Manager at Piglet in Bed, where I built the creative function from scratch — work that won the Living Etc Style Award for Best Bed Linen Design.
The creative and the commercial aren't separate for me — they never have been. The best product I've made has always come from holding both at once: strong creative conviction, clear commercial thinking, and enough experience to know when to push and when to bend. That's either a weird trait or a useful one — most clients decide it's the latter pretty quickly.
My Services
Pattern, colour, product, direction. I work across the full range of what a home brand needs — brought in at whatever stage makes sense, working through to the end.
Surface Pattern & Print Design
Original artwork, repeat engineering, colour separations and colourway development across print, embroidery and constructed textiles. From first sketch to production-ready file, tailored to your print process and factory base.
Creative Direction & Design Strategy
Seasonal direction decks, trend strategy, range planning, creative vision. The thinking that decides what a collection is, who it's actually for, and whether it holds together.
Product Development & Consulting
Full product development from concept to factory, or a targeted consult on something specific — colour planning, range gaps, fabrication. Brought in when something needs to move and needs to land right.
