Being based in the beautiful Cotswolds, luxury country living is a big part of our identity. We are, however, always keen to avoid the trite and the overdone when it comes to introducing a sense of the rustic into an interior. It is with this thinking in mind that we turn to Carola Van Dyke for the perfect blend of countryside charm and interesting design.
Carola Van Dyke
Handsome, Whimsical Animal Cushions
With a background in illustration and painting, Carola wanted to combine her art with textiles to create pictures, but not by simply painting on textiles. Carola is passionate about colour clashes, mismatches and always keeping a sense of contrast when it comes to textures and layers. She wanted to produce soft furnishings that were quirky, intricate, and above all with a sense of humour. So the unique process of drawing with scissors began and these hand-cut pieces are mixed like a painter uses their palette.
