Henrietta Scholes Bath School of Art and Design 2011 graduate won the New Designers Graham & Brown Award for her work which is inspired by the concept of creating a ‘new lace.’ With beautiful and enchanting textiles, her work plays with the qualities of light, transparency and the layering of white on white surfaces.
'New Designers came and passed at the beginning of July and was very successful for all of the Bath School of Art and Design - both Textiles and Ceramics. The stands looked great and really stood out! I had a wonderful time and was very lucky to be awarded the prestigious Graham and Brown award for my lace wallpaper design. I won £1,000 and a placement at their studio which I have just arranged to complete at the beginning of September. Their designs are lovely and I'm really looking forward to visiting the studio, there is even a chance they may select one of my designs whilst I'm there for a future collection, so very exciting stuff!'
'London Design Week was amazing and I had a great time showing at Tent. Very long days standing up though... I must invest in a chair if I exhibit there next year! My work was well received and it is always nice to hear people saying lovely things about my work! I have also been lucky enough to have my work on the House and Garden blog... take a look! Now I just need to decide what to do now...'
