Sisters-in-law Aura Parker and Marena Von Behr teamed up to create Studio Bonnie. Passionate about colour, design and beautiful fabrics, they create whimsical textile designs of intricate detail with a sense of storytelling.
While Marena studied interior design and Aura studied multimedia and web design, textiles is Studio Bonnie’s forte. For Marena, “going from selecting fabrics, to designing fabrics seemed a logical progression” and their shared love of drawing is where they really come together.
It was a love of “all things creative” that initially made the two click as well. Soon after meeting through Marena’s brother, Aura and Marena exhibited together, took a liking to each other’s work and pretty quickly decided to band together.
