About
I’m Heather Roberts, a creative and passionate print and graphic designer (textiles). I bring experience across fashion and home & lifestyle products, specialising in managing the entire product life cycle from concept to market. I love identifying emerging print and colour trends and weaving them into a brand’s DNA to create prints that are both innovative and commercially successful in order to drive sales.
With a proactive and detail-focused approach, I stay organised and goal-driven. I thrive on collaborating with clients to deliver stand-out prints, stay ahead of trends, and elevate a brand’s presence through thoughtful design, sustainable practices, and efficient production workflows.
