PROJECT DESCRIPTION

Where Poison Lies immerses you in murder and malice. The meticulously designed café interiors collection is laced in clues, hidden details and stories of wicked intent. As a designer who is highly driven by illustration and craftmanship, this collection draws inspirations from the Arts and Crafts movement and the Agatha Christie novels. Through a combination of traditional printing techniques and digital practice, the collection provides a modern, quirky spin on the ethos of craftmanship. I have always been drawn to the idea of storytelling and therefore enjoy creating designs that tell stories and build immersive experiences within interiors.

AWARD CRITERIA

Our vision is to democratise design and quality.  

This means giving our customers an amazing choice of stylish and quality products that have a rich story behind the collection. Our award winners should share our passion for design, craftsmanship, innovation, sustainability and future thinking.
