Print + Pattern

Orla Kiely, an Irish fashion designer based in London, is best known for her Premiere Class collection. Her prints and patterns, which are steeped in play and delightful colour combinations, are at the forefront of textile design.


The Royal College of Art graduate has recently released a book entitled, Pattern. It showcases her work from the past 15 years, offers insight into her creative process and inspirations. See below for some of our favourite uses of her signature patterns on everyday objects.

Castle & Things


Created by hands with love, Castle named after the Sydney-based creator Rachel Castle, represents a love of beautiful, often handcrafted or hand printed, pieces for the home. Our favs have to be the screen prints and embroidery art pieces. Witty sayings combined with colourful, felted-crafts are a win. These splendid one-of-a-kind jewels easily adorn any room -- making any house into a home. We want it!

Note: All handmade artworks are sewn by Rachel Castle and her very patient and loving mother, Jillian Patching.

Her African-inspired clothing is fashioned from imported hand-woven, natural fabrics crafted by Ethiopian artisans.
