TEXTILES - the romo group

Today's post features new fabrics from The Romo Group. This family run business is known for it's quality home furnishing fabrics and wallpapers, and besides the actual Rom brand also includes Villa Nova, Mark Alexander and Zinc. We start with some lovely blue geometric weaves from Romo's Habanera range.

Below : From The Romo Group's Zinc label (designed to be deliberately unpredictable) we have have the colourful Geronimo collection that features Navajo inspired motifs.








And from bold ethnic colour to muted neutral and sophisticated prints with a few fabrics from Mark Alexander's 'Handcrafted Modern' collection.

DESIGNER - sara paoletti

Sara Paoletti is a surface pattern designer who is just starting out. Sara prefers to work with bright and bold colours, and is very inspired by the natural world and is quite obsessed with birds. Here we can see prints from three of Sara's collections. The first was inspired by an imaginary jungle queen, the second exotic birds in a royal aviary and the third by the life that can be found on the forest floor. Find out more about Sara and her work online here. And also on instagram.
