About Rachel Brown

I have graduated from Edinburgh University with a BA (hons) in Textiles. My degree course has given me a unique opportunity to develop a diverse range of skills. Each project I completed was significantly different from the last to broaden my horizons and grow my skills. 

My practice is mainly focused around and inspired by our surrounding environment. My most recent collection is based around the natural world finding beauty in our surroundings. I find inspiration from my own photography and am constantly adding to my own personal photographic library. My practice is based around colour, collage, hand painting and drawing which are brought together through unique pattern compositions.

I have set up Rachel Brown Designs with a view to build my own brand and to develop my skills and sell textiles suitable for the home. My graduate collection which focuses on bees, flora and the environment is just the start, I can’t wait to build on what I have started.
