Who is Florence Broadhurst I hear you asking and what makes her so cool?

Florence Broadhurst was born in 1899 and died in 1977 and was an eccentric and talented Australian woman. After an amazing life overseas filled with a variety of careers, Florence started a wallpaper business in the 1950s and had created over 800 designs by the 70's. 

Her work has inspired generations of designers, with a more recent collaboration with Kate Spade.
