Les Designs for Living is a creative art and embroidery brand founded by mother-and-daughter artists Lesley Turpin-Delport in South Africa and Nikki Delport-Wepener in Hong Kong. Bringing together East and West, the brand encourages people to explore their creativity through art, craft and design. Its work combines mixed media, drawing, painting, appliqué and embroidery, with guidance on composition, colour, balance and scale.
Les Designs offers books, design ideas and products for creative projects, including Delicious Embroidery, which shares techniques inspired by worldwide embroidery tutorials and students. Its themes range from botanicals, insects and recycled materials to birds, wildlife, fungi, colour, transparency and three-dimensional work. Designs can be adapted for pictures, upholstery, wall hangings, quilts and bespoke garments, using paint, thread or appliqué.
The brand also provides creative inspiration and learning through tutorials, events and travel experiences. Its upcoming Hong Kong and China Discovery Tour combines art, teaching and exploration. Les Designs for Living aims to help people make their mark at home and beyond, using accessible materials such as canvas, paper or fabric.
