Hollie Bowden, the London-based interior designer, who established her eponymous studio in 2013, has teamed up with artist Cesca Dvorak to create a capsule collection of blankets. Sharing the same wit and style of Bowden’s residential projects, the collection features bold designs and imaginative storytelling, the collection draws on Hollie’s extensive archive of objects and references.
Amassed over years of creative practice, the pair have crafted a fantasy interior inspired by Dvorak’s dynamic block prints, collages, ink illustrations and textile designs. Featuring three designs – Fireplace, Mirror and Tiger’s Eye – each features intricate designs, which were taken from Bowden’s extensive archive of references and Dvorak’s vibrant, narrative-driven illustrations.

While Fireplace, in dark green and subtle yellow, draws inspiration from the vibrant colours found in Mexican design and architecture ,a central influence in Hollie’s work, Mirror uses light blues and dark browns and Cesca’s reimagining of photographs of interior staircases. The abstract Tiger’s Eye, which began as a brush and ink painting, features pale yellows and browns, channelling the patterns of animal prints and natural wood grains.
Woven by a heritage mill in Lancashire, the blankets are made with sustainability in mind, using 75% recycled cotton and 25% recycled fibres. Soft to the touch and meticulously handcrafted with vibrant, geometric prints, these pieces are made to last.
