Preventy

We still have a green theme – I rather like the colour green – for this design which was intended once again as a design for soft furnishings.

The inspiration for this pattern looks back to the designs produced in the 1900s and at the way they inspired the patterns produced mid-century in the 1950s and the first half of the 1960s. The colours are representative more of the mid-century colours than colours that were used earlier.

The scale I have used is quite large although I did experiment with using this at a fairly small scale since it has a quick repeat and I was pleased with the result. In my mind, I could see this being used as curtain fabric but I also wondered how it would look as a furniture design when used at a small-scale. When I have the opportunity to do so, I will try this with a 3D model and bring you the result.

If you wish, you can also see larger versions of this and, of course, my other designs and patterns for interiors on my Flickr page, a link to which is here.
