Repeat! Sharp Spikes in Lemon Lime



Maybe this pattern should come with a warning, it's a little spiky and dangerous! The color combination softens the harshness of the pattern, so it ultimately reads as a crafted botanical arrangement. Visual interest is kept by the surprise thorns interrupting the flow of the pattern.

Colors! Lemon Lime




Yellow and green, lemon and lime, accented with jade is spring ready, fresh and crisp. The tart boldness of these citrus colors works wonderfully with the smoothness of the jade.  Clockwise fresh fibers in citrus colors, Gauguin's "In The Waves", and a gem from Missoni's spring collection.

Shapes! Sharp Spikes


This collection of images present individual pieces building a strong, sharp, and even spiky form.  Clockwise: palm frond against a bold background, a beautiful bird with beautiful feathers, stiletto style manicured nails, a mohawk-like fan, false eyelashes, and Barbara Gongini's Spiked Pumps

Repeat! Woven Lines in Turquoise and Red




We loved the idea of creating a dynamic design inspired by a simple and common weave structure. The vertical lines are anchored down and seem to be woven together by the teal marks. We achieved  movement from the interaction of the lines and the colors.
