over the christmas holidays i added the list of links on the right to a series of key designers. these are people who have succeeded in the world of pattern design. ive included personal favourites like emma bridgewater who went it alone and launched her own designs to huge success, something all designers dream of. or people like jonathan adler who are able to influence trends with their designs. if you are not familiar with any of these designers click their website links (right), or for quick summaries just search key designers or their name for previous coverage in the blogger box at the top. ive recently 'aquired' all these terrific detailed images of the work of angela adams, so my new list is the perfect excuse to look at her fabulous work again. at the top is a beautiful new rug called 'arundel'. more on our other key designers coming soon.
IMO, what makes a pattern great is the use of color. If you have a great pattern with poor use of color it's worthless. What these people do so well , IMO, is color.
