Josephine Lorelle
I’m Josephine Lorelle.
I’m a textile and surface pattern designer based in Aotearoa, New Zealand and owner of Studio Lorelle, Studio Lorelle – New Zealand’s First Dedicated Textile Pattern Studio.
I create fresh, elegant prints for apparel, products, and home decor, blending hand-painted watercolour inks and hand-painting with digital techniques.
I draw inspiration from the diverse urban flora in New Zealand and most days you can find me wandering, photographing, and enjoying the ever-changing flowers in my local neighbourhood.
With this inspiration I create painterly, textured designs, infusing each piece with graceful movement, visual intrigue and a hint of nostalgia.
I regularly attend international textile shows and I’m available to show you my collection online as well.
