Designer Bio /
Darya Bing & Nikki Walker

At Walker & Bing, artistry meets innovation in surface pattern design. Each piece begins as an original artwork, created through techniques such as painting, ink work, print-making, and drawing, before being carefully refined for textile application. Their collections range from limited-edition luxury silk scarves and silk-cotton sarongs to collaborations such as the series with premium rug maker Dilana, which includes one hand-knotted rug and five hand-tufted designs that reflect the intersection of art, craftsmanship, and cultural storytelling.
