Chloe Evans – Head of Design

Skills / Background: I always wanted to immerse myself in design, in particular textiles. Studying Textiles and Graphics A-Levels in UK, I then developed my skills further by moving to Australia to do my BA of Design at UNSW. 

Alongside my education I was also brought up by two very creative parents, both sharing their different sides of the brain. My mum was all about the freedom and playfulness with Art, whereas my Dad being an engineer was about creating things that follow precision and structure. 

It’s amazing how diverse textiles can be from one country to another, from the past to present there is just so much inspiration. Anything with lots of bold colours, I’m instantly drawn to it.  I like to still see elements of the handwriting when creating a digital print, the strokes of the paint brush, gradient from a watercolour and the markings from fineliners. 

Collections created: A Picnic In Provence, The Tetris Collection, Siena Collection and Floral Dancer Collection. Collaborated with the digital team and external designers to create collections for Kelly Kratzing, Miranda Brown, Shibori, Patricia Braune, Sibella Court, Grace Garrett, Typoflora, Sara B, Jimmy Pike and Florence Broadhurst.
