Innovate. Transcend. Purpose.

 

Based in Pembrokeshire, West Wales, Evan James Design is a fresh to market, innovative surface design company combining traditional quality craftsmanship with new technologies to endorse customer individuality, product longevity and durability within the commercial and residential sectors.

Not only do we challenge whether a wall has to be flat, but do they also have to permanently stay the same? The modular surface system intrinsic to Evan James Design fosters limitless possibilities of pattern, colour and texture, which are not fixed upon installation; instead the design can respond to the changing demands of an interior setting.

The completely bespoke surface can be created from an extensive range of woods including Birch, Walnut and Oak, a colour matching service and a range of finishes from matt to metallic. Due to the precision engineering, don’t be deceived by the delicate appearance; the curvature of each module accommodates high levels of resilience, excellent acoustic properties and ease of maintenance.

Highlighting the natural grain of the wood, Applicate 0.5 is pure sophistication. Continuing in the Applicate 0. series, delicate washes of stain are mixed to your own colour specifications, before being applied by hand to each shape a defined number of times for each row. Thus creating the seamless graduated render without loosing the woods innate characteristics.

With the option of a two tone finish, the Applicate 2. collection offers glowing results. Different rendering finishes including phosphorescent or metallic coatings are reflected off the backboard, creating an almost luminous quality to the undulating surface. The possibilities become limitless with a made to order, entirely personalised fabrication; narrow or curved shapes can be combined to create unique contours. These reversible shapes unlock a world of interactivity and customisation as you create your own reflective patterns and designs.

Classic floral with geometric undertones.

Drawing inspiration from a collection of vintage French wallpaper samples, an old illustrated book detailing the anatomy of roses and the visual consumer codes we surround ourselves with in daily life. 

The collection centres on an intricate climbing rose design, which has been deconstructed and the petals individually sliced, as if bar-coded. As a result the collection evokes a strong graphic, accentuated or softened by the colour combinations and materials used. As with all Evan James Design work, the collection strives to include unique finishes, tactile embroidery and subtle texture change.
