UK Surface Pattern Designer Creating Historically-Inspired Patterns
Drawing from the natural world and the macabre to create unique, maximalist patterns for modern interiors.
Meet Hollie
Based in Essex, Hollie Quinn is a surface pattern designer with a deep-rooted passion for historical textiles, vintage books, and the natural world.
Raised in a family of artists, she’s been drawing for as long as she can remember. Her love of both art and textiles converged through pattern design, where ink and charcoal sketches evolve into immersive wallpapers and luxury fabrics.
Since graduating with a BA in Textiles from Norwich University of the Arts in 2016, Hollie has refined her digital skills and developed a signature style rooted in the gothic and botanical. Her work is deeply inspired by themes of decay, folklore, and the quiet strangeness of nature.
When not designing, she can be found tending her wildlife garden, reading fantasy novels, or exploring historical estates and gardens.
