Inspired by nature and all things wallpaper, this design was created in 2008. A traditional damask pattern featuring a modern twist with silhouette deers and birds. The intention of this design was for retail and became so much more. This pattern can be seen in Marina del Ray, CA at The Studio (MDR) as well as being featured in InStyle Magazine, Feb 2011, and most recently appearing in the 2014 Bud Light Super Bowl Commercial.

Early in my career of surface pattern design, while working at Astek Inc. I had the privilege of working with Woodson and Rummerfield on a pattern design for Christina Aguilera's new home project.  The Cherry Blossom pattern was then printed on a rose gold mylar wall covering.  The wall covering was placed in frames in Christina's new bedroom.  Her home was featured in People Magazine, February 25, 2008  issue.

A fantastic learning project for me while I was starting my career in Textile design, was when I got to reproduce an old wall covering pattern from the 1960's, with only a small sliver of the original wall covering.  The small piece I had to work off of was torn and damaged, and very aged. Only small areas of the flowers where still intact, but no complete repeat existed.  The fun part was filling in the missing elements of the nonexistent repeat.  This reproduction went through rounds and rounds of pattern approval  as well as color.  When all was final, it was then printed onto a canvas to give it a bit texture and durability.  

More fascinating things about this installation and how the set came to fruition can be read here in the online New York Times archives.
