V&A Pattern: C.F.A. Voysey

This is a new title to accompany the V&A Pattern series. It celebrates the innovative and inspirational work of C.F.A. Voysey (1857-1941).Voysey was an architect who produced a prolific range of pattern designs over a career that spanned 50 years. His style, characterized by bold repeats, natural forms, flat tints of colour and a pared back simplicity, is quickly identifiable. Readers will delight in his patterns, which retain their original freshness. Karen Livingstone is Director of Masterplan and Estate at the Science Museum.
