Kicking off what promises to be an exciting 2020,
Blinds 2go, the UK’s biggest online made to measure blinds retailer, is delighted to announce a brand new and exclusive collaboration with charismatic London-based designer
Clarissa Hulse.
Famed for her decorative interior products, which focus on beautiful botanicals and vivid colour, her eye-catching style has made its way into Blinds 2go’s ever-expanding designer collection.
Working from her North London studio, Clarissa Hulse has been producing hand-printed home accessories for almost 20 years, under the watchful eyes of her two black cats, Bertie and Lulu. Her style is colourful and eclectic, with inspiration coming from her nomadic lifestyle as a diplomat’s daughter and family holidays to far-flung destinations such as the cloud forests of Costa Rica and the national parks of South Africa.
Explaining her design process, Clarissa says, “It often begins with scouring the countryside searching out interesting plants and flowers, which I then photograph. Next, these are worked along with mood boards and design palettes which are inspired by a host of different sources - the changing colours in nature, current fashion themes, books, art, ceramics and architecture.”
“I work with a team on making these come to life through digital means (though the overall aim is that things stay true to how nature intended as much as possible!) Silk screens are then made up with the designs and the colourways are painstakingly chosen.”
