Collaboration with Annie Sloan

Collaborating with

Annie Sloan…

As the days are drawing in and our thoughts turn to spending more time in the home, it is a pleasure to be releasing these exclusive sketches by Annie Sloan, in collaboration with Zoe Glencross. Industry icon, Annie, has incorporated fabrics from the Aventuras collection alongside some of her classic furniture and wall paint colours to create four nostalgic, yet punchy interior schemes. Annie's visionary use of colour exemplifies the ways in which Zoe's collection can be used as part of an exciting and bold living environment. Indeed, this collaboration is a testament to the endless opportunity for experimentation with fabric and colour. 

Colour makes a room. It doesn’t have to be alarming, it’s about using what works well together. The fabrics are so versatile and work so beautifully with my paints’. I think all of these schemes work well in any kind of room’.

Painting the wood panelling in tones of green can give a textured and more blended look to create a sophisticated interior scheme’
— Annie Sloan
I’ve tried to put the colours together in a way that builds an evocative mood, with darker accent tones combined with soft pretty colours, to create a more intimate, cosy scheme. The darker tone adds a full stop to the overall design.
— Annie Sloan
I love how Annie’s approach to colour is that little bit edgier and bolder than many of us might be ordinarily be. She encourages us to look at contrast and colour tones with a fresh perspective.
— Zoe

We are hugely grateful to Annie for taking the time and care to create such beautiful paintings. It’s a privilege to see our fabrics alongside Annie's wonderful paints. We hope you feel inspired by Annie to be a little bolder with your design schemes.
