The above image shows Pringle & Murray's first scarf collection! Wendy Murray is a fellow weaver from the Art School and we share a love of architecture and a common aesthetic for bold, graphic and luxurious fabrics.
Inspired by the colours, patterns and textures found in architecture, Wendy’s research sources are the cityscapes of Berlin and London, in particular the colour proportions she observed through her design research. The grey tones of the architecture provide the neutral backdrop to her fabrics with flashes of vibrant, exciting colour taken from grafitti, reflections and urban fabric of the cities.
My sources of inspiration are the cities of Glasgow and Copenhagen, which share the same line of latitude and therefore quality of light. Inspired by the differences in the colour palettes of each city, my fabric’s patterns and colours are taken directly from my observational research and drawings. Whereas Wendy’s fabrics focus on the linear, mine introduce a hand drawn repeat pattern element. This contrast of interpretation gives our collection, ‘Urban Fabric’, its desirability.
The collection is digitally printed on to luxurious wool delaine and silk habotai. Scarves will be made to order and colourways and patterns are interchangeable. The silk squares are especially suited to womenswear. The wool delaine rectangles are unisex. We can also provide a range of sizes if preferred. Please contact us to discuss sizes and costs...
