I am very excited to announce that my ‘Friti’ design has been nominated by Elle Decoration for the  ‘Best British Pattern 2010′ award at the British Design Awards.

See the nominations in the October issue of Elle Decoration, and cast your votes here.

Today I decided it was time I updated my Press page and back-tracked all of the very kind features and mentions I have received over the past few years – mostly off bloggers from all over the world.
It’s such a nice feeling to know that somebody has taken the time to write about your work, and I just wanted to say a big thank you to everyone who has interviewed me, promoted my work, and given me a little mention here and there.

I’ve tried my best to find all the mentions I could, but if you have blogged about me and I’ve missed you out then please tell me and I’ll gladly add you!

 October’s Elle Decoration magazine has a lovely feature on The British Design Awards, showing all shortlisted work for both British Design of the Year and British Surface Design of the Year. Go to www.thebritishdesignawards.com and get clicking.
