Isabelle-Laurent-Style: Elevating Textile Design with NedGraphics

A Legacy of Creativity and Innovation

Founded in 2002, Isabelle-Laurent-Style is the brainchild of Isabelle Laurent, a seasoned textile designer specializing in home decor, including bed linens, tablecloths, and wallpapers. After years of leading a major printing fabrics factory, Isabelle Laurent faced a pivotal moment when it shut down in 2001. Instead of stepping away from the world of textile design, she embraced the opportunity to build something of her own. In 2002, Isabelle-Laurent-Style was born, a design studio dedicated to crafting exquisite patterns for home decor.

With an eye for intricate details and a passion for timeless designs, she knew that success as a freelancer required more than just artistic talent—it demanded efficiency, precision, and the right tools to bring her creations to life. But where could she find software that matched her expertise and evolving needs?

Precision and Efficiency: The Demands of an Independent Designer

As an independent designer, Isabelle faced the challenge of handling every aspect of her work—design creation, color separation, pattern composition, and printing preparation—all while maintaining high quality and efficiency. She needed a software solution that was specialized for textile design rather than generic photo editing tools. Additionally, the ability to work with older file formats was crucial to ensuring continuity in her extensive portfolio.

For Isabelle, choosing NedGraphics felt like a natural progression in her career, as her journey with NedGraphics began long before she founded her studio, influencing her approach to digital textile design and solidifying her trust in its capabilities.

NedGraphics had been a constant in her career, evolving alongside her creative process. Year after year, she embraced each new upgrade, ensuring her work remained innovative, efficient, and ready for the ever-changing demands of the industry.

In Design & Repeat, she refines patterns and prepares them for printing, while Easy Coloring allows her to create multiple color variations effortlessly. Additionally, NedGraphics’ ability to handle engraver files ensures she can work with traditional printers without losing vital information.

Beyond its powerful tools, NedGraphics provides fast and reliable customer support, giving Isabelle immediate solutions whenever she encounters technical challenges.
