London Cloth Company, Drawings Continued … A Selection of Pattern Design From The Project (Pre-colour)

London Cloth Company Special

London Cloth Company, The Drawings

This is a selection of images I drew as part of a project with the London Cloth Company.

The London Cloth Company was established in 2011 and is the first micro-mill to open in London. The company supplies fabrics produced by skilled crafters on looms dating as far back as the 1870's.

I documented the tools, machines and abstract parts used in this extraordinary establishment through drawing and photography. Looking through boxes of parts and old tools, I left with a huge archive of photos and sketches to work from.
This is a selection of the final drawings.

In house placement - Giftware design for Marks and Spencer

I had a wonderful week working in the London studio designing giftware that will hopefully be sold in Marks and Spencer. Can't wait to share them with you! Thank you to all the people at the London Tigerprint studios for a great week and finding my work at the degree show! - See you soon!
