NEW
RANGE
the home collective
Meet the collabrative work of a mother and daughter team, Jennifer and Emily Hodges.
They recently released their new range of eco-friendly textiles
Tell us a bit about your business?
The Home Collective is a little textile studio run
by myself on Melbourne’s Mornington peninsula
in collaboration with my mother, Jennifer
Hodges, who is a accomplished screen printer
and ceramic artist in her own right.
Our aim is to create a range of textiles for
the home that are on trend, well made and
environmentally conscience. All of our textiles
are designed and screen printed by hand in the
studio using eco-friendly water based inks on
natural fibres such as linen, cotton and hemp.
Tell us about yourself and your background?
I believe that I was born with a creative gene
passed down to me by the amazing women in
my family. My great grandmother and great aunts
were accomplished seamstresses and painters
and my grandmother had a flair for interior design
(which she discovered whilst living in Paris) and
her homes were always alive with bold colours
and design, which were way ahead of their time.
I have tried my hand at various creative
mediums, studying interior/personal styling,
