Collector: Emily Wright
Our latest Home collection, Collector, is a reflection on peaceful moments spent in the places we treasure. Designed by our founder, Emily Wright, this capsule brings the gentle beauty of Walkerville and the South Gippsland coastline into your home – a place deeply loved by Emily and many in our community.
Through her hand-painted artworks and thoughtful textile design, Emily has captured the small, quiet moments that make this landscape so special – the kind of beauty that reveals itself when we slow down and take the time to notice.
Step into Collector — our new Home collection inspired by the coastal calm of Walkerville: Discover Emily’s original artworks and the serene beauty behind each design.
“I designed this range around small snapshots of the place that I love and find peace – coastal landscapes, mostly around Walkerville in South Gippsland. I wanted to paint those small moments that you notice when you have the time to look – Welcome Swallows darting around catching insects, with their flashes of blue and orange and beautiful wing shape. Shells collected – always searching for cowries but finding other beauties along the way. The paper daisies opening up each morning with the sun. Looking across the rocky coastline on a small sandy path, with new views revealing themselves through the sheoaks and banksias.”
Each artwork in Collector began as a painting in Emily’s studio – a memory of light, movement, and the textures of coastal life.
These original pieces are woven through the collection, translated across bedding: quilt covers, pillowcases, sheets, kanthas, and a luxe linen bed cover that puddles softly to the floor.
Crafted from natural fibres, including soft linen and GOTS-certified organic cotton, the collection brings the feeling of a summer morning indoors – breezy, grounded, and calm. Designed for layering and mixing, each piece invites you to create your own landscape of pattern and texture, much like collecting treasures from a beach walk or garden path.
“Painting this collection was really about slowing down. I wanted to capture those quiet, familiar things that make Walkerville so special to me – the birds, the shells, the view through the trees. They’re small moments, but when you notice them, they bring such a sense of calm.” Emily
Through this collection, we hope you’re reminded to pause, notice, and take in the beauty that surrounds you – the shifting light, the shells and swallows, and those small moments that make a place feel like home.
Continuing our commitment to thoughtful making, Collector also features a limited run of patchworked kantha quilts, each lovingly crafted from remnant fabrics – including handwoven checks by the Kala Swaraj Foundation and prints from past seasons. Every quilt is unique, a celebration of the artisans we work with and the materials we hold dear.
