Timorous Beasties

  • 13 June 2018

Its always exciting to discover a new resource, my first few hours wandering around the super user friendly  Patternsnap site has been like opening Pandora’s box! To share all of the new discoveries at once would risk sensory overload so you will need to stay tuned as I drip feed the goodies.

First up my favorite discovery is Timorous Beasties the multi award winning  studio of Alistair Mcauley and Paul Simmons based in Glasgow offers a stunning collection of fabric, wallcoverings, furniture, lampshades and ceramics.

The collections are diverse, ranging from designs based on traditional copperplate engraving techniques to designs that playfully combine time honored motifs of plants and animals with a modern spin …. and a scrumptious colour pallet.

From the intricate repeat pattern of  White Moth Allover Fabric.
