Acanthus leaves decorate many of Morris’ designs and take on a central role
in his Acanthus pattern for wallpaper. The classic motif is perfect for
repeating patterns, and Morris held the belief that larger-scale designs were
especially fitting for smaller rooms, as they could create a more tranquil
atmosphere compared to denser, smaller patterns. The use of soft tonal shades
further enhances the design, infusing it with a sense of gentle movement.
Acanthus has been printed on 100% cotton in a variety of colour combinations.
William Morris was a well-known poet, writer, artist, and activist who held the
view that art ought to be created by and for the people. He embraced nature as
the source of all inspiration and placed a high priority on usefulness,
simplicity, and beauty. His textile and wallpaper creations are still highly
regarded worldwide, making him a trailblazer of the Arts & Crafts movement.
