We are celebrating 100 years of Albany and one of the first things we did was look at crowning this event with some new designs, which both celebrate the past but are very much about the here and now. So we were delighted when the lovely people at Mini Moderns agreed to join in the fun!
Albany X Mini Moderns Keith and Mark were given free rein to create two new patterns, from a decade of their choice, to mark the occasion. Unsurprisingly, based on the duo’s signature style, the pair were immediately drawn to the mid-century years of the 1950s and 1960s and so Atelier and FAB! were born.

Atelier is 50s inspired design based on the treasured finds of Keith and Mark’s visits to the galleries and markets of Paris while FAB! is an homage to Fab 208 pop magazine from the 60s and features a bold, large scale geometric print. Taking inspiration from Pop, Op and Hard Edge painting movements, Keith and Mark also drew upon their love of sixties fashion for the design, from Carnaby Street to Mary Quant and interiors by Verner Panton.
