Our Philosophy
As the era of extreme minimalism draws to a close, there is now a yearning for soulful interiors, characterised by lush patterns and rich textures. The good news is the Afficionados of the Nod are here to bring you patterns to make your home or commercial space unique to you. We have patterns that will add instant glamour in small or large doses, depending on your needs.
After yearsof living in white boxes, we recommend starting gently and introducing the wallpaper feature wall. This will work wonders with solid colour furniture, and adds an instant lift to living areas and bedrooms. Then you can add coordinating fabric cushions or curtains. And for the final layer, you can re-upholster your solid colour furniture.
To lift a commercial interior, we recommend a bold stroke of 2 or more walls in Afficionados patterns. Alternatively,the fabrics can be applied as wall upholstery, upholstered onto banquettes or office chairs and stain-protected for high traffic wear and tear. We can also apply our patterns to other media, for example by application to windows, for the tota limmersion in pattern.
