Awaken the Senses With Geo
After the hibernation of winter, our new print by Julie Harrison of Pattern Play Studio will reawaken the senses with a design that balances the beauty of geometry & the gem like pops of pink and green.
Julie's clever designs have become synonymous with ella & sunday injecting a whimsy to our style that is irresistible.
We asked Julie to explain her proces behind this beautiful print...
This pattern started as a quick drawing of simple shapes in my sketchbook which then sparked an idea. I was remembering a Mediterranean holiday from a few years ago and the mosaic tiled floors of a Villa I had seen. The sketch took form and I quickly jumped into my favourite design software Adobe Illustrator to turn my rough sketches into a pattern.
I am typically known for designing floral prints, but every once in a while, I like to try to design something different. So rather than create a typical geometric pattern tile that was uniform and rigid in its structure, I wanted to experiment by designing a modern geometric print that wasn’t exactly perfect, much like the mosaic tiling on the floor of the Villa I remembered. My idea was to include the simple shape of contrasting hard and soft edges and fill them with both a warm and cool colour palette of cream, caramel, charcoal, pink and green.
