Double-sided 'Pink & Green Stripes' Ankara print lampshade

‘Pink & Green Stripes’ is a bespoke lampshade designed using my architectural understanding of illumination and how artificial light interacts with patterned and plain textiles when placed together. Handmade using an Ankara fabric, this shade creates a relaxing, atmospheric light that glows beautifully when illuminated.

Fabric Story This design features an Ankara waxed cotton printed fabric, chosen for stiped motif featuring my favourite combination of green and pink but with yellow, white and brown elements also included in the stripes. 

Lighting Behaviour Paired with its bright pink lining, ‘Pink & Green Stripes’ responds distinctively when warm bulbs are applied. The pink tone transfers boldly through the white elements of the pattern and intensifies the pink elements also changing the yellow to orange, creating a soothing and relaxing light ideal for bedrooms. Alternative inner fabric colours are available and give a slightly different light temperature when illuminated.

Handmade Craft Each lampshade is handmade in London using traditional making techniques. The exterior pattern is aligned with precision, the interior lining is finished cleanly, and the structure is built to maintain its sculptural form over time. As part of a limited run, every shade carries the individuality of the maker’s hand.
