I love the cheeky intro to this surface designer's "pattern" portfolio. Alan the Gallant is a multi-talented design bureau based in Barcelona and directed by Ana Montiel. And they're very entertaining. Very entertaining, indeed!
About Alan’s creative life.
A never-ending curiosity and lust for life allows Sir Alan to constantly evolve and be immersed in new design paths and directions, working with diverse mediums, objectives and materials for our clients; a Renaissance man with a dandy tie collection.
A porcelain cup, an artistic installation, a patterned ornament for a building façade, a fashion capsule collection; Alan is able to create this and more without putting a hair out of place.
There are no limits for a man of world and taste.
Sir Alan is a free interpretation of a contemporary gallant from the 21st century.
Haha I just love that description. Also the description on the front page is a most enjoyable read. If only all designer's insight into their reason-for-being were this clever and interesting to read... what a story!
Below are some more great designs. I love the graphic nature of these patterns, but somehow it doesn't come off stiff, but very delicate and soft.
All amazing work! Thanks for the inspiration, Ana, Alan, whoever you are!
