Art, Objects & Textiles

London artist and designer Eleanor Nadimi in her studio, seated beside abstract paintings and a tufted textile artwork.

Eleanor Nadimi is a London-based artist and designer creating paintings, textiles and objects to be lived with — bringing art beyond the wall and into the room.

Her work is rooted in colour, not simply as decoration, but as something that shapes how a space is felt. She moves between flat surfaces and three-dimensional forms, using paint, fabric and straw marquetry to explore composition, balance and the quiet shift that happens when an artwork becomes part of everyday life.

Alongside her own collections, Eleanor works on commissions and collaborations with private clients, interior designers and brands.

James Turrell. One of my favourite artists, ever. Seeing his work is unlike anything else. You don’t just look, you step into colour. It’s completely immersive. I’ve always been fascinated by the way colour can affect how you feel,
Playing with colour and straw for some new work. I keep coming back to this acid yellow. It seems to work with everything. #strawmarquetry
Palm Springs Series / 21 36 W x 27.5cm H Acrylic and Emulsion on Board This one has already sold, but I loved it too much not to share it. I spend a lot of time looking for frames. Usually I don’t start painting until I’ve found one that
