Designer Snowden Flood will be launching a new textile collection at the Decorex show in London on Monday. The collection takes Snowden back to her design roots, when she worked as a Textile Specialist in New York for an architect & interior designer in the 1990’s. She was responsible for finding weavers, printers, embroiderers worldwide, to manufacture the custom designs from her own and from sourced antique textiles. The 7 textile designs came about after a chance visit to a historic London textile archive where Snowden selected a few documents as starting points (as she'd done so often in the past!) Since starting her business in 2006, manufacturing in the UK has been a hugely important aspect of Snowden’s design process so it is no surprise that the fabrics are printed in the north of England.
These are lovely. They are reminiscent of Lucienne Day (to me).
