In addition to her printmaking, Lewin has also designed textiles, wallpaper, and ceramics, often featuring her signature botanical motifs. She has collaborated with companies such as St. Jude's, which produces fabrics and wallpapers featuring designs by contemporary artists. Lewin's work has been featured in several books, including Plants and Places, which showcases her prints alongside her sketches and inspiration from the natural world.
