A friendship through craft
Introducing four brand-new designs and six rediscovered William Morris classics, this collection explores the relationship between two extraordinarily creative families.
Collaborator, comrade, friend and neighbour. Sir Emery Walker (1851-1933) was all these things and more to the now-iconic designer, William Morris (1834-1896). This collection centres on Walker’s abode, 7 Hammersmith Terrace, where a rich variety of original Morris & Co. furnishings still ornament rooms today. Rediscovering designs long out of production and incredible handmade artefacts from the house, this collaboration celebrates 7 Hammersmith Terrace as one of the last great vestiges of the Arts & Crafts movement.
Recognising the loving and creative relationship between the families of William Morris and Sir Emery Walker, this collection offers something fresh and reawakened for every lover of interiors. With one of the highest numbers of new and re-introduced Morris & Co. designs of any collection this century, this release marks a moment to be celebrated by William Morris fans across the world.
Every measure has been taken to maintain the high craft standards first established by William Morris. Hand-finished touches along with the highest standard of woven and printed qualities emphasise the intimate nature of many designs within the collection. Where designs reference those in Emery Walker’s House, the original colourway is usually offered.
This launch comprises 28 wallpapers and 28 fabrics.
