William Morris (1834 - 1896) was the single most influential designer of the nineteenth century. Morris was a political theorist, scholar, translator and publisher, an environmental campaigner, writer and poet as well as an outstanding designer. Under his direction Morris & Co. grew into a flourishing and fashionable decorating firm renowned for its wallpapers and textiles. Originating in the Arts and Crafts movement popular in late Victorian 'artistic homes of taste', the company's designs have never been more widely appreciated than they are now. Today Morris & Co. guarantees authentic versions of those designs alongside new interpretations, using innovations in printing and weaving technology to create up-to-date fabric and wallpaper designs with timeless appeal. Morris & Co paint comprises 48 heritage colours which complement the increasingly popular fabric, wallpaper and bedlinen ranges (New Collections) and stand alone as strong heritage colours.
