Erica Waverly

ERICA WAKERLY graduated from the Royal College of Art in 2005 (MA Printed Textiles), specialising in surface design for interiors.
The inspiration behind the work is about unexpected ways of creating, using and contrasting print and pattern design within furniture and architecture. Drawing, composition and colour are integral to the designs. It is about combining innovative techniques and new materials, with more human qualities, for example, the hand drawn image with digital print.
The wallpaper designs, "Spiral" and "Angles", use geometric elements, in sophisticated repeats, which are both graphic and organic. "Spiral" is a bold linear design which, uniquely, can be hung horizontally or vertically. "Angles" is clean, modern and ethereal as the silver lines reflect the light. Each design has a curious 3D quality, playing with space and perspective.
