This Eley Kishimoto pattern, Flash, has been screen printed onto clothing such as this blouse and translated into wallcoverings and laminated furniture. When introduced together, a wild optical effect occurs, creating a modern interpretation of gesammtkunstwerk, a tradition born out of the Arts and Crafts movement which integrates architecture with the work of artists and artisans.

Mark Eley and Wakako Kishimoto have been named the new designers of the French ready-to-wear label Cacharel; their first collection debuts in Fall/Winter 2008/09.
