Design Porn: Kiran Ravilious

It's always exciting to find a local designer. When I stumbled across Kiran Ravilious' work, I was taken in by the beautiful simplicity of her block print designs like this green daisy cushion:
There's a lot of detail in there but it still looks clean and gorgeous and at £40, quite the bargain. Kiran was brought up in Singapore and has taken inspiration from that and her grandmother-in-law, Tirzah Ravilious, as well as plant life to produce her designs. I'm inspired to write words and schemes in this red fan notebook which is £6:
Continuing the pretty and practical theme, these tote bags have an inside zipped pocket which is stroke of genius. No more scrabbling at the bottom of a bag under books and tissues and half eaten packets of biscuits (what? No, of course that's not what's in my bag.... [it's totally what's in my bag]) to find your keys! They cost £18. I rather like this fern design:
Kiran is also working on aprons and scarves which should be available soon. Considering she only started three years ago, I'm excited to see what she produces in the future.
