HANNAH CALVERT 

‘Radical Classical’ – a new age neoclassical, modern take on the 18th century Baroque and Rococo Designs. was inspired by visits to Rome, Lake Como and Milan as a response to the interior trend for Autumn Winter 20/21 from ‘MIX’.

Hannah created a wealth of photographic images of roman artefacts, within both Italy and museums and stately homes such as Castle Howard, as a basis for original detailed observational studies using gouache, pencil and watercolour, before taking through to the design stage using adobe creative suite. 

This collection of wallpapers and furnishing fabrics work collectively to dramatatise and maximise the elegance of grand interiors and settings such as hotels and restaurant spaces. Bright colours and large-scale prints create a sense of grandeur, making the space evocative of the dramatic and decorative Baroque period.
