As a wall covering and upholstery designer, I incorporated a variety of design skills including print and pattern design, graphic design, color selection and theory, and surface design. I also worked very closely with the manufacturing process, understanding how to mix ink to achieve the desired color and finish and how to construct products using gravure print lines and emboss machines. I designed patterns from scratch as well as worked on artwork that clients had already created. After initial client consultations I would take the new design through the production process to create a final product that the client was happy with, all while staying on brand.
