Sanderson

This project is so exciting!

This February, Sanderson a British fabrics and wallcoverings institution celebrates their 150th anniversary! The Sanderson company were the first to produce a coordinated collection of mass-produced wallpapers and fabrics in Britain. For 150 years the brand has been at the vanguard of every significant movement in European decorative arts, from Arts and Crafts and Art Deco to 1980s country-house style and the vibrant interiors of the Noughties, shaping a distinctive mode of English decoration beloved throughout the world.

To celebrate – just in time for London Fashion Week, Sanderson is taking part in a three way collaboration using their iconic fabrics. On the eve of the anniversary footwear designer Tracey Neuls opens her shop TN29 at 29 Marylebone Lane involving acclaimed contemporary artist Nina Saunders. Both designers honour Sanderson by using well-known prints; Nina will be showing large-scale sculptures characteristically morphed and melting items of furniture, upholstered in Sanderson fabrics – and Tracey a dedicated collection of shoes employing reissued vintage Sanderson textiles.

I absolutely love the re-telling of these iconic chintzy fabrics in a contemporary setting – Happy Birthday Sanderson!
