Designer & product developer
Hello!
Hello! I am Ambrosha Shell, a designer and product developer based in Atlanta, Georgia, with a passion for creating visually compelling experiences and thoughtfully designed products that elevate everyday living. With a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Textile Design from Georgia State University, I’ve built a multidisciplinary career that blends creativity, trend forecasting, and product innovation across the home furnishings and product development industries.
My journey began with a year-long internship at Devgiri Exports, where I designed kitchen rugs and assisted in the development of area rugs and table placemats. This experience laid the foundation for my understanding of textile design, manufacturing, and the product development process.
I later joined Surya Carpets as a Junior Textile Designer in Product Development, where I created original artwork and CAD designs for rugs, pillows, wall hangings, and poufs. My work was heavily inspired by emerging design trends discovered through market research, online forecasting, and attendance at High Point Market. This role strengthened my ability to develop trend-driven collections that balanced creativity with commercial appeal.
Following my time at Surya, I became the first Rug Designer at VCNY Home in North Bergen, New Jersey. In this role, I helped expand the company’s rug category by designing original collections and contributing to the overall product development process. I also collaborated on shower curtain and outdoor rug projects, further broadening my experience within the home furnishings space.
Currently, I work as a Freelance Product Development and Textile Designer. Spearheading end-to-end product production that aligns closely with emerging consumer market trends. I function as the primary point of contact for diverse clients, following design briefs, and translating digital designs into tangible products, while overseeing quality control and respecting strict delivery terms.
Across every role, my goal has remained the same: to create meaningful designs that connect with people. My expertise includes trend research, original artwork creation, repeat pattern design, colorway development, color separations, mood boards, mock-ups, texture mapping, presentations, tech packs, factory communication, sample reviews, and production approvals.
I am passionate about designing products and experiences that are innovative, beautifully executed, and thoughtfully crafted for a wide range of lifestyles.
