Designer in Profile - Lara Colgan Position within company Owner/Director Company Atelier Textiles Website www.ateliertextiles.com Tell us a little about your background in design:

My passion and respect for materials and intricate designs stems from a very early age, when I would spend time at my Grandmotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s antique textile shop rummaging through the fabric, admiring the delicate lace fabrics and the decorative textiles for sale. At a young age I understood and saw the beauty in embroidered fabrics and how they become even more beautiful with age. Like works of art, they tell their own unique story. My admiration developed into over two decades of enthusiasm for fabrics, design and colour. I was very lucky to have worked alongside and was mentored by English Home owner and founder Gaynor Churchward. Gaynor taught me about the importance of scale and beauty in historical designs, as well as being a wealth of technical knowledge. Our collaborative relationship and mutual respect actually resulted in the merger of both our organisations a couple of years ago. I am delighted that Atelier Textiles is now the custodian and sole provider of the exquisite world renowned English Home collections, which beautifully complement our own European inspired collection of designs.
