BOTANICA OBSCURA

    Filter

      Botanica Obscura is a moody, romantic pattern collection inspired by the entangled beauty of forgotten gardens and the elegance of Victorian botanical studies. Each design whispers with quiet drama - featuring shadowy florals, poisonous plants, and climbing vines that feel both mysterious and timeless. Hand-drawn and thoughtfully arranged, these patterns blend historical layouts with a modern sensibility, perfect for those who favor the poetic side of nature. 

      Whispering Bellflowers is inspired by 18th-19th century floral stripe wallpapers, especially French block-printed papers and early American interpretations of English chintz. The vertical vine layout mimics the architectural structure found in Regency-era and Victorian wall treatments, designed to elongate a room's height and bring nature indoors in a stylized, orderly way.

      Umbral Bloom This dense, immersive layout is rooted in Arts and Crafts movement textiles, particularly those by William Morris and John Henry Dearle. The asymmetrical but balanced arrangement of foliage reflects the idea of nature as untamed and ornamental, with flowing forms and layered botanical storytelling. 

      Nightshade Scatter Multi-directional spot patterns date back to late 19th century fabric printing - often seen in calicos and botanical field study prints. This design borrows from early scientific illustrations and poison garden folklore, combining clarity of form with haunting subject matter; the Hellebore plant.
