Portfolio

Nature-inspired surface pattern designs and collections shaped by places, memories and small details gathered along the way. Each begins with a story and grows into a thoughtfully coordinated collection for fabric, stationery, gifting and home décor.

Memories in Bloom

Memories in Bloom is a nature-inspired collection shaped by love, memory, and the quiet beauty of the garden. Inspired by my father’s roses, his love of gardening, and the simple moments that stay with us, each pattern carries a little piece of story into the everyday.

Beneath
the Gums

Beneath the Gums

Beneath the Gums is inspired by quiet bushland walks and the ever-changing Australian landscape around my home. Gum leaves, blossoms and gum nuts tell the story of the seasons, from the dry, earthy colours of the landscape to the lush green that follows the rain.

Springtime Stories

Springtime Stories celebrates the gentle beginnings of spring with flowering gardens, fresh breezes, and the first little signs of new growth. Soft florals, painterly stripes, and delicate scattered motifs capture the colour and quiet joy of a season beginning again.

Wilds

Whispering Wilds

Whispering Wilds was shaped by quiet walks through the lush, ancient rainforests near my home. Ferns, mushrooms, scattered pinecones, and little forest treasures are gathered from the stillness of the forest floor after rain, while two colour palettes move gently from the fresh morning light to the deeper tones of twilight.
