5 MINUTES WITH

Matthew Williamson

International fashion designer Matthew Williamson

has branched into interiors and released a collection

of wallpapers and fabrics for Osborne & Little.

My collections are recognised by the signature use of

print, embellishment and colour. They o en refl ect a

refi ned yet spirited sense of glamour inspired by global

and artistic infl uences. Dragonfl ies, hummingbirds and

peacock feathers have been referenced since my early

collections and have become motifs of the brand.

I like the contrast of hot and cold colours in a

collection, pairing shades you wouldn’t naturally think

would sit together, but do. Prints then add another layer.

I’ve always had an interest in interiors so it was

such an honour when Osborne & Little approached

me to collaborate.

I was really excited to translate my design signatures

for interiors, pairing this with the savoir faire and

cra smanship that Osborne & Little is known for.

In fashion we focus on form, fi t and movement.

Designing for interiors is more static, so you have to

take into account the e ect a print would have spatially.

Ceramic art

In a dreamy palette of chalky greys and

blues, Australian design brand Búl’s latest
