Designer Sierra Detrick is no stranger to worldly inspiration. “Growing up, I based many of my projects in school and in personal pieces around multi-cultural arts,” she says. “The diverse creativity of the world still heavily influences me today.”
She found inspiration for her Morocco design in the vibrant hues and intricate details seen often in Moroccan design. “I was really taken with modernized versions of the Moroccan-style tiling I was seeing in home design,” says Sierra. “I decided to create my own tile pattern that could be used throughout a wedding invitation suite and paired it with a very simplistic but elegant body of text. I didn’t want the copy to compete too much with this vibrant pattern, but I still wanted it to be able to stand on it’s own. Ted Clausen’s ornate hand calligraphy added just the right amount of sophistication.”

“My main source of inspiration for the Lara design was goat soap packaging,” says designer Racheal Bumbolo. “From there I envisioned a simple, summer soirée in a barn with vintage and wooden accents – very organic in feel.”

Designer Sierra Dietrick‘s main source of inspiration for her Opaline design was the ocean. “I wanted to stay away from the typical and sometimes theme-oriented pieces we are used to seeing and focus on something different, like a stormy, misty, and tranquil palette and subtle texture,” she says. “When I was in my early teens, my aunt took me to the coast in Maine. The weather was dreary, the air was cold, the waves were relentless and the sky was grey the entire trip. It was nothing like I had envisioned, but it ended up being one of my favorite getaways. It doesn’t all have to be blue skies and sunshine to be considered beautiful!”
