a source for color, print + pattern inspiration

Pattern Curator is a design and concept studio exploring color, print, pattern, and culture to inspire. Translating trends and information into a visual narrative to support creative direction, seasonal concepts, and design strategies for fashion, home, and lifestyle brands.

Founded by Kristine Go in 2014.

our approach

We believe in taking calculated design risks to evolve future aesthetics. Through vast research, thoughtful curation and a deep understanding of design, we uncover relevant ideas and emerging visual directions across color, print + pattern. Looking across culture, art, fashion, interiors and the market, we connect influences and translate them into meaningful creative direction. Pattern Curator moves away from repetition and uses trend research to inform and, most of all, inspire future designs.

collect • connect • curate • create

Our process begins with extensive research — collecting ideas, connecting influences and curating what feels relevant across color, print + pattern. From there, research becomes creative direction, providing a foundation for what comes next.
