Sparkk ‘Waratah Grande’ cushion

DESIGNER: Grace Garrett Based in Sydney’s Camperdown, Sparkk Studio is a family-owned business dedicated to innovative and sustainable design. With a range of designers on their books, they have plenty of talent to choose from. One such designer, Grace Garrett, has been working in the design industry for her entire career. “My experience spans graphic design, fashion and, for the better part of a decade, interiors and textiles,” says Grace, who is based on Sydney’s Northern Beaches. Her ‘A Sunburnt Country’ collection is a nod to both indigenous tribal markings and desert landscapes, incorporating motifs of native flora and fauna. “After living overseas, I felt compelled to create a contemporary range of native-inspired designs,” she says. “I love that it’s Australian-made and designed, too.” Sparkk’s dedication to environmentally conscious production means that each piece is made to order, reducing waste and ensuring a smaller footprint. Coupled with the use of the latest printing technology, the result is a durable, quality piece of design, custom-made to the user’s specifications. From $110, sparkkshop.com.au.
