Nature
With her work, Rose’s aim is to convey the luxurious, slow flow of time in nature, combined with a sense of freedom and awe in the sublime. The careful use of materials and ecologically sound methods are at the forefront of her practice.
heritage
Portmeirion Pottery was founded by Rose's grandmother Susan, and Portmeirion Village built by her great-grandfather Sir Clough . Family ties to the Bloomsbury set have also been deeply influential.
Palette
Rose’s use of colour is a hallmark of her work. Clear, bright and soft pastels vibrate alongside the grounding tones of earth, sand, sea and foliage. Rose's palette is wide-ranging, but always sophisticated and energising.
Pattern
Patterns capture elegant, stylised forms found in nature, and are made with rhythm and pace at the forefront. All work is hand drawn and painted by Rose to capture the inimitable human imperfections that make a design so attractive.
