Once Upon a Design
In the New York New York collection, we celebrate the sights and sounds of the City with three rich and vibrant colours: Grand Central Skies, Lights on Broadway, and Central Park Greens. Commemorating an unforgettable trip to the Big Apple in 2022 - we’ve captured our memories in bright and bold colours that represent FWP’s quintessential NYC experience.
Come with us as we revisit the glowing broadway lights of New York City; bask in the nature within a concrete jungle; and take a ride on one of the world’s most iconic transport systems. We hope to inspire your very own wanderings in the city that never sleeps.
Notable design details:
- Marvel at the expansive celestial ceiling of Grand Central Terminal reinterpreted with a Ferris Wheel Press twist - Pumpkin and Patch jump across the stars in constellation form
- A bevy of animals from across the globe represent New York’s multiculturalism and the New York subway’s storied history.
- Graffiti decorates the walls of the station; can you identify the taggers? (Hint: Pumpkin and Patch might have a rebellious streak)
- A bereted lion helps an elderly tortoise navigate the subway system - inspired by the Guardian Angels
