Featured Designer - Mariia
In 3 words describe your pattern design style?
Graphic, bright, experimental.
What is your work & design process?
I usually follow trends at fashion shows. There I look for current graphic styles and collect mood boards for inspiration. Then I draw elements for future patterns on iPad or on paper. After drawing the elements, I collect them into the final version of the pattern. Sometimes I try my patterns on mock-ups to improve them.
Where do you find your design inspiration?
I am inspired by nature, paintings of great artists, and fashionable people on the Internet.
What advice would you give to new designers?
I advise them to experiment more and find their own style.
