Design
All the designs and photographs used on our products are by Rachel Goodchild. The artwork is either made by hand or taken from original photographs. In the case of the former, Rachel uses as a basis naturally textured papers in a wide range of colours. Techniques of hand-tearing and cutting produce surface design imaging of a unique kind. Rachel's work has been described as innovative, bold, vibrant and refreshingly different. Read our News and Feedback.
