Printed textiles is the field Christian Zuzunaga has chosen to work in since graduating from the RCA two years ago with an MA in communication art and design. Moroso, Ligne Roset and Christian Delcourt have upholstered sofas and chairs in Zuzunaga fabrics to stunning effect, while the designer has created a scarf for the Tate Gallery.
