The graphic collection showcases Rhonda's trademark aesthetic of strong colours, graphic shapes and bold patterns, withencaustic tiles in graphic black and white with shots of bright colours on some tables.She's softenedclean modernist lines with texture and pastels.
It's all second nature to Rhonda Drakeford who's known for her bold taste. "Black is the new neutral", she explained to Made.com.
Drakeford adds: “I’ve absolutely loved designing this range of furniture and textiles for Made.com because they are not afraid to do something different and create statement furniture.”
The range includes a grey and black encaustic tile covered dining table, a console table with pops of pastel pink, and a pop-artycoffee tablewith circles and rectangles in blue, green, white and black.
Meanwhile the blue and grey geometric rug has a more subtle, toned down design, the Vitti cushions are an easy way to add modern, graphic lines to a room, while themonochrome Knox accent chairhas a decidedly retro vibe.
