Scaling impact for First Nations
artists by integrating art, culture
and storytelling into the built environment. Since 2015.

Established in Naarm (Melbourne) in 2015 by two non-Indigenous art curators, Willie Weston is the first and only textile brand working exclusively with First Nations artists to create fabrics, wallpapers and other products for commercial interiors.

With curatorial expertise in First Nations art and a sophisticated design aesthetic, Willie Weston translates artworks by First Nations artists onto high quality products that integrate seamlessly into commercial interiors.

With a focus on high performance upholstery fabrics, drapery and wall coverings for commercial, government and education settings, Willie Weston offers a range of products able to withstand the toughest environments. We service the residential interior market with our upholstery fabrics and beautiful matte wallpapers. Through carefully selected partnerships, Willie Weston also extends markets for artists’ work into aligned commercial sectors, such as acoustics and flooring.

Grounded in reciprocity and respect, everything we do is underpinned by ethical partnerships with artists, including fair and scalable remuneration.

Our aim is for First Nations art, culture and stories to be integrated into the built environment, creating warm, sophisticated, and culturally rich spaces – with benefits flowing back to artists.

Transition to First Nations
co-ownership

In June 2026, Willie Weston proudly transitioned to a new leadership model that formally embeds First Nations voices and perspectives into the brand. Co-founders Jessica Booth and Laetitia Prunetti continue to lead the business, now in partnership with Troy Casey and Amanda Hayman of Blaklash.

Willie Weston’s new leadership team brings together a wealth of expertise, with both brands having cemented reputations for excellence, ethical practice and sophisticated design responses within their respective industries. Working together, the new team extends opportunities for First Nations artists within the architecture and design sector through their combined acumen in design, manufacturing and community collaboration.

Troy is a proud Kamilaroi man from north-west New South Wales. He believes First Nations design belongs in the spaces people live and work in every day, and through Willie Weston, he helps carry the work of Aboriginal artists into the built environment with care and respect. Troy brings First Nations perspectives into textile design through a model in which artists retain agency over their work and economic opportunity flows back to the community.
