I just discovered the surface designs of Spanish art and design studio TODO MUTA. They are a relatively new design company based in Seville that creates illustrative patterns and prints for wallpaper, vinyls, prints, textiles and just about anything else you can think about slapping a pattern on. They even developed a line of limited edition ceramics.
I love their work because it’s fun enough for kids, especially the wall drawings, but I can see that if used in the right way, the repeating patterns work well for adult rooms, too. Mix them with fun colorful fabrics and you’ve got a more artsy look — it’s exceptionally versatile. The simple line drawings bring a refreshing, childlike whimsy that’s most appealing to me.

These Spanish designs can’t avoid comparison to Guernica, especially with the activity in each image. I even spotted a bull in the first image. The confidence in an artist’s line work always pulls me in. I’ve found other artists’ work extremely accessible as wall art. I love being able to purchase works from artists that actually benefits them.
