as soon as i saw these bold designs from new zealand's ellen.G i loved them, each design is created by hand cutting specially coloured paper. ellen giggenbach was born in germany but moved to new zealand where she enjoyed a successful design career. but her dream was to create her own collection which is inspired by "simple 1950’s and 60’s shapes, european folk art and traditional romantic imagery". ellen has transferred her wonderful designs onto cushions and bags which can be seen here and she can be contacted for freelance commissions or wholesale.
