“The print-and-pattern-infused creative spaces of designer Rachael Taylor.” Yes you read that right! I recently received a very generous 10-page feature in the amazing US magazine Where Women Create! I’ve known since late last year that I was lucky enough to get a lovely feature within the magazine, but I had no clue I’d been […]
I always find it hard to explain what it is that I do as a job to people who are new to my work. First & foremost I’m a Print & Pattern Designer, however I’ve been called an Illustrator for the various commissions I’ve worked on, an Author because of my books (although they are […]
Happy Monday! I’ve had an admin heavy / finishing off those niggly jobs kind of weekend. I always like to pin up a giant sheet of paper & create a giant doodle wall on boring days like these & just draw for the fun of it & give myself a little break. This is something […]
Next year marks the 10th Anniversary since I left my safe/in-house full time design job to fly solo.

Hello everyone! Today I want to talk about the impact that your drawings can have & about the power that can lie within a single drawn motif. Taking ‘Module 1: Designing Your Way’ from Make it in Design (my own e-course!) has been truly amazing, inspiring & motivating. I’ve loved connecting with the group & […]
Hello everyone! In January I announced that I would be joining The Art & Business of Surface Pattern Design e-course as a fellow classmate (for the 1st time ever)! It’s been such an amazing experience to get to sit down & design with my classmates & the community. You can keep up with my progress over […]
WOW what a year! We’re taking a moment to reflect on 2016 & all of the amazing things that happened in the Rachael Taylor studio last year. It was a jam-packed, roller coaster of a year & we just wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU for following & supporting us! – – – – […]
