Collaborations

Collaboration with Studio Weave for the London Festival of Architecture.

The wonderful people at Studio Weave asked me to design a print for the legs (!) of their installation in Aldgate at the gateway from the City of London to the Olympic Park. Intrigued to see what they were planning I couldn’t possibly say no !
‘Paleys Upon Pilers’ is an intricate timber palace perched on pillars that marks the site of Aldgate and commemorates its most distinguished resident, Geoffrey Chaucer. The timber pillars are decorated with printed patterns inspired by illuminated manuscripts. The 16 wood panels were not only printed by hand but were gilded with Dutch gold leaf and sealed which was a great new skill to learn.
