UK-based multidisciplinary designer Bethan Laura Wood reveals the inspiration behind her latest collaboration with Italian rug company cc-tapis at this year’s Milan Design Week.
An unafraid approach to colour, pattern and material defines what English multidisciplinary designer Bethan Laura Wood wears – and how she works. “From a young age, I’ve always enjoyed dressing up and finding expression through my clothes,” she says. “Quite often, I will now digest colours and patterns through how I dress, helping me to find a language that feeds into what I’m working on.”
Establishing her namesake studio in 2009, Bethan’s portfolio spans textiles, furniture, lighting, sculpture, accessories, installation and set design, underpinned by notable brand collaborations and exhibitions in museums and galleries worldwide.
