A member of the Institute of Designers in Ireland and of the Crafts Council of Ireland, Emmanuelle Marion has a background in Business, Visual Arts and Arts Management.

She travelled extensively in search of the textile industry's leading trendsetters before setting up Ecó Creations. She had the opportunity to study traditional and contemporary fabric design in Scandinavia, Western Europe, South-East Asia and North America.

"I wanted to take my inspiration from the beautiful landscape of Ireland and use its wild flowers as a metaphor to promote a more respectful textile industry, both towards people and the environment" says Emmanuelle.
