About the designer
Patrick Kinmouth

After many years of designing sets and costumes for the theatre and an artistic life crossing boundaries in fashion and design, Patrick Kinmonth has collaborated with Chelsea Textiles to create a collection of fabrics and papers inspired by his memories of Venice and his love of the textiles of the eighteenth century.

INSPIRED BY THE TRADITIONS OF PRINTED PAPERS & WOVEN SILK DAMASK OF VENICE

About VENETIAN DAMASK
INSPIRATION

Damask, named after the city of Damascus where it was made from the middle ages onward, takes shapes derived from nature and abstracted into patterns over hundreds of years, travelling from east to west along the silk road, bringing its exotic garden of idealised plant forms to the finest medieval interiors. 

Chelsea Textiles' Venetian Damask attempts to capture some of the subtle layers of poetry and history of a faded hanging on a palace wall, revealed by sunlight.
