Hannah is an emerging Printed Textile and Surface Pattern Designer for fashion and interiors. Growing up in Bristol, Hannah enjoys seeking colour, process and pattern from the world around us gaining a conceptual understanding of the cultural influences the inspire her creative practice. Current work is based around the exploration of the biophilic well-being in our urban spaces, looking at the conceptual relationship between plants and the man-made world. ‘Urbanised Botanics’ questions the harmonious relationship between plants and the man-made world, taking inspiration from Portuguese architecture for its obscure lines, shapes and colours. Patterns derive from the simplification of the buildings, looking towards the configuration of shape vs line. Initial drawings using charcoal and procion dyes stem from a fascination towards shadow, light and opacity. This 'outdoor living' fabric collection embodies the core of Hannah’s practice through expressive use of colour, process and pattern which has been translated into digital repeat patterns.
