Cole & Son x Vivienne Westwood a new wallcovering collaboration – where iconic British design, a shared rich heritage and craftsmanship meet contemporary living environments
2026 sees the design house of Cole & Son translate the distinctive design language of British fashion house Vivienne Westwood. The capsule collection reimagines fabrics, prints and hand-drawn graphics – transforming homes into canvases for culture, art and craftsmanship through the Westwood lens.
Drawing on Vivienne Westwood’s rich runway history and celebrated print archives the collection combines historical reference with avant-garde design, creating a unique wallpaper collection that merges the worlds of fashion, interior design and living.
Designed, hand-painted, and printed entirely within Great Britain, the collection comprises eight designs over 31 colourways. From hand-rendered stripes to trompe-l’oeil tartans, graphic leopard prints, and expansive squiggles, Cole & Son’s artists have translated each design for the home utilising traditional design methods of the house, including strié and moiré techniques. This attention to detail across craftsmanship and quality is in keeping with Vivienne Westwood’s ethos of ‘Buy less, choose well, make it last.’
Launching at London Design Week, 9-13th March, Cole & Son’s Chelsea Harbour showroom will be transformed to showcase the artistry and versatility of the collection. Iconic Westwood prints and graphics will be experienced in a new medium and at an expressive life-size scale.
“A true design dialogue between two iconic British design houses, translating the movement, fabric, and form of fashion into the materiality and mood of interiors. It reflects a shared commitment to intentional design. My vision for this collection blends bold beautiful colours with fluid form and tactile richness, creating interiors that feel dynamic, layered, and unmistakably tomorrow.
It is a privilege to introduce this collection into the world of interiors. Vivienne Westwood has long been a profound source of inspiration for me — her uncompromising design language, boundless creativity, and unwavering individuality. I am so proud of this collection infused with passion.”
Marie Karlsson, Creative and Managing Director, Cole & Son
“To explore our archives and select prints and hand drawings by Vivienne herself has been a joyful experience. To see how these graphics from our collections translate into an entirely new medium and scale – from being draped on the body, to surrounding you in a room shows the power of beautiful, timeless design. The collection with Cole & Son develops the language of our house and brings our distinct design aesthetic to the world of interiors.”
