Kate Thornley-hall

This local designer collaborates with artists, transforming their work into home furnishings, wallpapers, decorative flat-weaves and custom handwoven wool and silk rugs, or what we call “art you can walk on.” Patterns include butterflies and bees, playful birds, peacock feathers and decorative florals. A new partnership with design and media personality Tommy Smythe delivers traditional kilim designs with colourful twists.
