Flowers & Bees
Surface Pattern Design

2019

These are two different designs for fabric which I created for a client looking to start her own fashion range.

The first brief was to create an "indian block print" looking design which had to incorporate something floral (ideally local) and a bee. I used a South African flower called a Wurmbea Elatior, also known as a salt & pepper flower, and created this repeat pattern below.

I was then asked to create another pattern to compliment, but also offset the first design. This time the brief was to include beehives and/or beehomes as well as the same bee.
