For immediate release: May 5th, 2017 Iván Meade expands his personal narrative in design with the introduction of a line of chocolates, translating his textile collection onto the palette to delight all your senses. Meade’s new chocolate line is the combination of two of his passions: great design and quality food. As a unique touch, each flavour is a representation of a fabric from his thriving eponymous fabric line that was launched in 2014. The Collection The concept behind each pattern in the Iván Meade fabric line is that each pattern has a story to tell about Iván’s influences, history, admirations and aspirations. One of his favourite patterns is Mariposa, which is an ode to Meade’s beloved mother, Maria Celia, and embraces her style of modern interpretations of old classics. The traditional toile-influenced motif juxtaposed against a crisp, Carbón background creates an unexpected beauty. It seems only natural that his mother would impact the flavour as well; her penchant for chocolate with mint after as a post-dinner treat has been translated into a well-loved combination for Mariposa (which is Spanish for butterfly). The dark chocolate is reminiscent of the dark background, while the natural mint flakes playfully dance amongst the surface, as would a butterfly. Mariposa – Dark Chocolate & Mint Says Meade of his latest venture: “As a self-proclaimed foodie, quality and variety in flavours and ingredients is of the utmost importance to me. I can also feel confident about having my name on a product that is not only delicious and organic, but also promotes support of local business.” The chocolate bars are...

For immediate release: August 24, 2015 Victoria, BC — Internationally recognized designer Iván Meade’s new fabric line is the culmination of 15 years in the design industry and an expression of his personal aesthetic of timeless European methodology with a sophisticated, modern edge. One of Meade’s fundamental design mantras is a phrase his mother would often use: “Find luxury in what you touch every day.” This deep-rooted philosophy is revealed in the splendid textures and patterns of the news line. France, its people, and their way of life have always intrigued and inspired Meade. For the latest release of his eponymous fabric line, Meade continues his personal narrative with a distinct je ne sais quoi. To perfectly capture his vision, Meade used the Parisian influence to photograph this exciting new line in a beautiful French light. Mariposa is an ode to Meade’s beloved mother, Maria Celia, and embraces her style of modern interpretations of old classics. The traditional toile-influenced motif when printed against a soft, Rosa background creates an unexpected beauty. Vista Hermosa is inspired by the tile patterns in Meade’s grandparents’ neoclassical home in San Luis Potosi and is all at one geometric, feminine, and modern. Reminiscent of lace or leatherwork, it is a versatile, mid-scale pattern. Meade’s extensive experience in graphic, industrial, and interior design has provided him with distinctive insight into the intricacies of fabric design, allowing him to create a cotton-linen line that is not only unique, but also precisely meets the requirements of interior designers and appeals to the most discerning tastes. In addition to the limitless combinations...
