William Morris Fabrics Australia

William Morris was an influential figure in the Arts and Crafts Movement and created numerous iconic designs that remain celebrated to this day. The designs, characterised by intricate details, natural motifs, and a fusion of traditional craftsmanship and modern design principles, continue to influence the worlds of interior design, textiles, wallpapers, and decorative arts. They remain emblematic of Morris's enduring legacy in the world of design. Some of his famous designs include:

• Strawberry Thief: This pattern features birds plucking strawberries from a garden. It's one of Morris's most recognisable designs, known for its intricate details and rich colors.
• Golden Lily: A pattern with stylised lilies in golden hues amidst swirling foliage, created by Morris's protégé, John Henry Dearle, but often associated with Morris and his studio.
• Fruit: This design showcases various fruits, leaves, and vines in a repeating pattern, reflecting Morris's fascination with nature and medieval influences.
• Willow Bough: This pattern features willow branches and leaves arranged in a flowing design, evoking a sense of movement and tranquility.
• Mallow: Inspired by garden trellises, this design features interwoven lines forming a lattice pattern with floral elements.
• Honeysuckle: A pattern showcasing the graceful and intertwining nature of honeysuckle vines, emphasising the beauty of this climbing plant.
• Pimpernel: The "Pimpernel" pattern features a repeating pattern of small, delicate flowers and foliage, arranged in a symmetrical and intricate manner. The detailed botanical elements and intertwining colours bring a sense of balance and harmony.
