Interior designer Suzanne Tucker of San Francisco firm Tucker & Marks introduced a new fabric collection as an homage to some of the most renowned figures in the world of garden and landscape design, proving that a passion for color, texture, and pattern is a hallmark of more than one creative field.
“I was inspired by some of my favorites in the world of garden and landscape design: Gertrude Jekyll, Norah Lindsay, Penelope Hobhouse, Vita Sackville-West, Russell Page, and Geoffrey Jellicoe,” says Suzanne. “Now more than ever, it feels so right to find refuge in nature and the tranquil world of gardens, to indulge in lush floral embroideries, multicolored botanical prints, and soft dreamy textures.”
