William Morris Gallery Archive Collection: Blackhorse Lane Ateliers

In collaboration with Liberty, William Morris Gallery has commissioned leading UK-based contemporary designers to reimagine objects from the William Morris Gallery archive that were significant to the life of William Morris, pioneer of the Arts and Crafts movement, and his family. Each of these limited-edition products embodies a spirit of handmaking, working with natural materials and finding joy in labour; principles which underpinned William Morris’ own approach to design. Liberty and Liberty Fabrics have also created a series of new products that celebrate the work of May Morris, daughter of William and Jane Morris and an influential and highly-skilled designer and artist. Sales will support the education and community programme of William Morris Gallery.
