Immersed in the timeless allure of Kelmscott Manor, William Morris found endless inspiration. From the enchanting gardens and rustic barns to the quiet dovecote, meadows, and meandering stream, he drew from these surroundings to create enduring designs.
Volume I of Kelmscott Gardens brings together Morris’ iconic designs, including Strawberry Thief, Marigold, Larkspur and Pimpernel. Vibrant cotton prints complement the intricate decorative jacquards and textured embroideries.
The opulent printed velvets offer an elegant upholstery option, perfectly complementing this curated collection. The colour palette pays homage to the natural dyes used in the original textiles and wallpapers found in the William Morris Gallery archives. Some colours take on a modern twist, while others draw inspiration from the originals.
With access to the William Morris Gallery’s extensive archive of detailed, hand printed wallpapers and textiles, we have created the William Morris At Home fabric collection, a charming range of fabrics that wonderfully embody Morris’ passion for nature and botanical beauty. Discovering an intricate silk jacquard of Larkspur in the William Morris Gallery archive inspired us to infuse Morris’ designs with opulence.
Sumptuous satin jacquards add a luxurious touch to delicate foliage while linear embroidered velvets offer an indulgent tactility. All encompass the iconic imagery of William Morris and possess a timeless quality to cherish.
The colour palette in this volume ranges from rich walnut and berry hues to serene tones of indigo and sage. Softer tones of limestone contrast with the warmer ochre tones and strong iron shades. These colours, spanning both volumes, seamlessly blend and contrast, making it effortless to combine favourite designs.
“Have nothing in your house that you do not knowto be useful, or believe to be beautiful.”
