Voysey’s Birds and Animals

Charles Francis Annesley (better known by his initials C. F. A.) Voysey (1857–1941) is, with William Morris, one of the best-known and most enduringly popular designers of the Arts & Crafts Movement. A practising architect, Voysey also designed a broad range of applied arts objects, from furniture, ceramics and metalwork to wallpaper, carpets, tiles and fabrics. His two-dimensional designs, created from the 1880s to the early 1930s, are among his best-known works today. His wallpaper and textile designs in particular are characterized by simple, stylized, rhythmic repeat patterns that rely for their motifs on forms found in the natural world. Plants abound, but so too do animals and birds, represented as silhouettes or in soft, pastel shades.

Estudio Laterna is an interdisciplinary design space based in Ibiza that integrates landscape architecture with a strong artistic approach. The studio was founded in 2004 by Andrea Sánchez and Ricardo Jarpa. The landscape architectural designs are led by Andrea with a team of landscape architects, biologists and artists. The application of the designs is directed by Ricardo with a team of professional gardeners and artisans. Together they create an alternative form of landscape architectural practice that unites design and exploration, pushing boundaries, connecting nature and its realms, speaking the ever evolving language of the more-than-human. This intertwining was the leitmotif that also inspired them to create Estudio Laterna Art Gallery, a nest of art in the heart of Ibiza island, manifesting a new perspective for local communities and international artists. Estudio Laterna is also developing other creative projects such as Kossmun, an experimental outdoor furniture brand.
