West Elm’s near-monthly circular, Design With Style 10/March: Print Shop makes some bold claims, that the Brooklyn-based Modern home furnishing company doesn’t quite back-up.

Like West Elm I agree that prints do have power, even as the warm and whimsical varieties, but they are going to have to do better than some printed towels to add pop or perk to this nest. Don’t get me wrong, who doesn’t like printed textiles? But it’s not like West Elm is exactly the Fabric Workshop when it comes to innovative textile design.

Strangely, the only non-textile print to be found is the enigmatic ‘Naive botanical sketch’ that is ’screen printed in charcoal on glass’. Say What? Oh well, I guess I won’t be adding style to my nest with leafs from their book.
