The world is catching on. Collaboration may be the ticket to competitive advantage. You see it in business more and more often. It’s been done for a long time in the arts – fashion designers collaborating with artists, photographers etc. It’s happening in technology too. Each side leverages the strength of the other to create something greater than the whole. That’s what I do when partnering — err collaborating — as well.

For me, my textile designs offer potential partners a leg up –they get a very distinctive look and feel. I’m the only one in the world creating designs that look like…well..my designs.  You’ll soon see the results of my first official collaboration with another designer. We’re creating the ‘Human’ collection – a capsule collection of garments made by Rachel Riot from fabrics I’ve painted by hand. Why Human? More on that later.
