A couple of years of ago I attended a design conference hosted by the color experts, Pantone. Pantone invited a select group of interior designers and rug designers to share their wisdom and inspirations on a panel. I crept up the back with my journal in hand, ready for some amazing creativity to hit me in the face. Well, little did I know I was about to experience the incredible optimistic energy of Malene B! Malene was on the panel of speakers, but there was something very different about her presentation... it was full of life and passion! She spoke so genuinely from her heart about her travels, her native Caribbean heritage and her many inspirations.

As you can imagine, it was a pleasure finally getting to meet Malene in person after a year or so have passed since the conference. After a few emails going back and forth, it felt like I was saying hi to an old friend! I absolutely love her vibrant color schemes and her depiction of inspiration to rug form. Check out her very unique subject matter below. From henna tattoos to Aboriginal artwork, Malene takes color and construction to a whole new level! Her concepts are so fresh and exciting.
Take a looksy at the clean execution of such whimsical and vibrant designs...
Thanks Malene B for having such an authentic design voice and encompassing it in every way you express yourself! It was so much finally getting to meet you!
