I create original surface pattern designs for products and brands, combining strong visual style with practical, repeat-ready artwork.

My designs are inspired by everyday subjects—from florals and food to playful, decorative elements—and are developed to work seamlessly across a wide range of applications, including clothing, textiles, homeware, packaging, and stationery.

Each pattern is carefully constructed as a seamless repeat, ensuring it translates effectively across different products and scales while maintaining clarity and visual impact.

Licensing & Commercial Use

My surface pattern designs are available for licensing and commercial collaborations.

This includes:

• Licensing existing designs for use on products
• Creating bespoke patterns tailored to your brand
• Developing collections for seasonal ranges or product launches

Licensing options are flexible and can be tailored depending on usage, scale, and exclusivity.

Surface Pattern Commissions

Looking for a custom pattern for your brand or product? I create bespoke surface pattern designs tailored for commercial and creative use.

Each design is developed as a seamless repeating pattern (tile), allowing it to be applied consistently across a variety of surfaces while maintaining visual impact.

Whether you have a clear concept or just an initial idea, I can work with you to create a design that aligns with your vision and brand.

Pricing

Surface pattern commissions start from £150.

As these designs are typically less time-intensive than portrait work, pricing reflects the complexity, level of detail, and intended usage. Projects involving multiple colourways, variations, or more intricate designs will be quoted individually before work begins.

For commercial use, licensing or usage terms can be discussed and agreed upon as part of the project.

A 25% non-refundable deposit is required to secure your booking, with the remaining balance due upon completion.

The Process

• Send your enquiry via the contact form or email me directly at carmel.rimmer@gmail.com
• Share your ideas, references, and details about how the design will be used
• I’ll provide a quote, including usage terms if applicable, along with an estimated timeline
• Once approved, I’ll begin designing your pattern and share updates along the way
• When complete, you’ll receive your final files, ready for production or digital use

Revisions

You’ll have the opportunity to request reasonable minor adjustments during the design process.

One round of minor revisions is included once the design is complete. Larger changes—such as altering the overall concept, layout, or direction after work has begun—may incur an additional fee.

What’s Included

• A custom seamless repeating pattern design
• High-resolution files suitable for print and digital use
• A colourway tailored to your project (additional variations available on request)
• A personalised design aligned with your brand or idea
