Allison Staffin / Staffin Design Watchung NJI’ve been creating art ever since I could pick up a crayon. So much so that I have a callous on my right middle finger which is
how I learned to tell my right from left when I was little. I find inspiration and beauty all around me. I love going to
museums and craft shows, antiquing, and flea marketing. I collect vintage jewelry, posters, old tins, purses, postcards, advertising art, and more. These are the passions that inspire my designs and patterns. I live in an old farmhouse circa 1864 that is filled with an eclectic mix of my collections and home decor pieces. I am happily married and have two amazing sons,
a Bernese Mountain dog, and two cats.
I have a B.S. in Graphic Design and Advertising from the University of Delaware.
Once I had a firm grasp on the skills I needed, I started a boutique design studio in NYC specializing in package design.
Some of the amazing companies I have had the pleasure of working with are:
Revlon, L’Oreal, Liz Claiborne, Wella Professional Haircare, Posner, La Prairie, Becton Dickinson, The Dannon Company,
and Twinings Tea.
It was an easy transition into the surface and textile design field. I’ve been creating patterns for the past several years and am
licensed in the US, UK and Canada. When I’m not developing surface and textile designs, I create hand built pottery, jewelry, and do interior design.
I feel incredibly lucky to be able to wake up each day and do what I love.
