Dartmoor Details is my fabric collection for homewares, influenced by three beautiful locations of Emsworthy Mire, Fingle Woods and Bowerman’s Nose located in Dartmoor National Park.
As a textile and surface pattern designer who is inspired by nature, my designs explore the organic textures and shapes of Devon through delicately painted and layered watercolours to achieve whimsical prints and soft colourways. Creating a variety of designs for pattern play through a mix and match style collection which reflects the essence of Dartmoor in the summertime.
I have a passion for interiors, designing fabric for homeware pieces to create a luxurious and relaxed environment capturing the feeling of nature indoors. Using digital stitch, I have added a fun contrast and textural aspect while natural dyes created using foraged materials from Dartmoor add earthy tones to further deepen our connection to nature.
Dartmoor Details yw fy nghasgliad o ffabrigau ar gyfer nwyddau cartref. Daw’r dylanwad ar eu cyfer o dri lleoliad hardd ym Mharc Cenedlaethol Dartmoor, sef Emsworthy Mire, Fingle Woods a Bowerman’n Nose.
Fel dylunydd tecstilau a phatrwm arwyneb sy’n cael ei ysbrydoli gan natur, mae fy nghynlluniau’n archwilio gwead a siapiau organig Dyfnaint drwy ddyfrlliwiau wedi’u peintio’n ysgafn a’i haenu i greu printiau chwareus a lliwiau ysgafn. Rwy’n creu amrywiaeth o ddyluniadau er mwyn chwarae â phatrymau drwy gasgliad mewn arddull o gymysgu a chydweddu sy’n adlewyrchu hanfod Dartmoor yn ystod yr haf.
Rwy’n angerddol ynghylch dylunio mewnol, gan ddylunio ffabrig ar gyfer nwyddau i’r cartref i greu amgylchedd moethus a hamddenol sy’n cyfleu’r teimlad o natur dan do. Gan ddefnyddio pwyth digidol, rydw i wedi ychwanegu gwrthgyferbyniad hwyliog ac agwedd weadol tra bod llifynnau naturiol wedi’u creu gan ddefnyddio deunyddiau a gasglwyd ar Dartmoor yn ychwanegu arlliwiau daearol i ddyfnhau ein cysylltiad â natur ymhellach.
