| Place of origin |
Natasha Marshall graduated from Glasgow School of Art in Printed and Knitted Fabrics, setting up her fabric company Squigee in 1997. Her fresh, hand printed design proved extremely popular with the boutique hotel market and international hospitality venues. In 2004, she re-launched her fabrics and wall coverings under the Natasha Marshall brand at 100% Design, London.
Marshall is inspired by architecture and the urban environment, as well as Britain's historic floral tradition. Her designs are characterised by bold colour combinations and simple abstract patterns and are particularly suited to the retro trend in domestic interiors.
'Blossom' is from the Park Collection and has a definite 1920s vibe and reflect Marshall's ability to reinvent the floral tradition, referencing plant and organic forms whilst retaining her strong graphic style.
