Creating my patterns I was always seeing them on a big scale. Coming from monumental art I have always felt weakness for big scale surfaces. Even more. I always adored qualities that natural material, (fabric, plaster wall, stone or mosaic) can add to an work of an artist. It is a language of nature in textures.
For this I am so happy to start a new product with my designs. It´s a way to bring my art to the world in a way that I see it.
Another thing I adore is how the time adds its own vision to everything. It adds harmony to things, if it´s nature or things created by humans. For this I am going with natural high-quality materials so that they can show all its beauty staying in your house for many years. Let the art in your house show all its beauty with time, let it get all its value of timeless things.
Decorate your house with our beautiful patterns printed on high-quality medium-weight pure linen. Natural linen is a perfect interior fabric. Due to its durability, it´s a great choice for a delightfully textured curtain and upholstery fabric. It has an elegant luxurious look. Linen tends to be a more billowy fabric but still contains a tailored look. This makes it a great fabric if you want airflow and light to filter into the space. The natural color of the fabric and typical for linen texture adds natural and organic feel to it.
UPHOLSTERY
Linen is the perfect choice for a delightfully textured upholstery fabric. Flax is the strongest natural fibre, so it can be recommended for upholstery. Natural fabrics are the perfect interior fabrics at the same time they have a luxury feeling and they work so beautifully as a curtain fabric, blinds and also for upholstery.
When it comes to window treatments, fine linen works very well. This makes it a great fabric if you want airflow and light to filter into the space.
Linen pillows require relatively low maintenance and bring a light feel to any space. When linen fabric is used to construct decorative pillows, it provides a tailored and luxurious look.
Bedding and pillows can be an investment for many, but because linen is a stronger fabric, it will last longer. Linen gets softer over time and improves as it ages. It doesn´t need to be washed so often and only requires occasional vacuuming to maintain its care, and this durable fabric resists stains easily. Another plus is its naturally antimicrobial features and resistance to moths.
LEVEL OF SUSTAINABILITY
We want our products to stay in your house for a long time, that is why we print our patterns on linen that offers higher levels of sustainability and enhanced durability that lengthens its lifetime making linen a long-term investment.
The printing technology that is used for our fabrics does not require wet post-processing of the material and therefore does not require water. The pre-treatment, inks and softener are water-based GOTS 6.0 and OEKO TEX 100 (Class I and II) certified.
Linen fibers are sourced from the stems of flax plants. Flax is an extremely durable and sustainable textile and is considered one of the friendliest fabrics to the environment. That’s because many farmers do not use irrigation or fertilization during the growing process. Flax plants are grown in cooler climates throughout the world in countries like France, Belgium, Italy, Ireland, China, and the United States. Creating linen upholstery from a flax plant also uses less water than that of the cotton-to-fabric process. Linen is also twice as strong as cotton and retains its look much longer. Both linen and cotton are exceptional choices for comfort. Though cotton is generally lower in price and slightly easier to clean, linen offers higher levels of sustainability and enhanced durability that lengthens its lifespan - making linen a smart long-term investment.
