Label copy

Widely revered for their bold print work, the design duo Eley Kishimoto has been on the forefront of the hands-on design movement for more than a decade. Since forming their partnership in 1992, they have worked in both apparel and interiors, designing and producing wallpaper, furniture, and fashions. Their production studio in Brixton, South London, is the primary hand-printing center for students and designers. In their use of hand printing and in the collective nature of their workshop, Eley Kishimoto evokes the spirit of William Morris.
