Indian Summer
screen printed crepe cotton furnishing fabric
Designed by Jyoti Bhomik for Heals, London, 1966
CIRC.261-1967
Bhomik was a
young designer born in India. The late 1960s was a time when the
West was fascinated by Eastern cultures, hence the name
of this fabric. The floral motifs resemble the psychedelic artwork
found on posters, record sleeves and underground publications. The designer
said that his inspiration came from
Persian rugs and garden plants.
