The new Woven range focuses on textual aesthetics with Serif, Panama and Calico all available in a varied selection of colour options. Serif’s design leans into the visual representation of layering and abstract patterns, while Panama presents a mosaic of colour, with the textured design drawing inspiration from the tactile heritage of Tweed. Calico highlights each thread-like detail and creates the impression of intertwining, to curate a pattern that appears craſted and dimensional.
While the Stone range draws its inspiration from naturally inspired designs. Sierra concentrates on the inclusion of natural textures and Travertine showcases an organic pattern that reinforces its natural origins. In contrast, Concrete & Neo- Concrete mix traditional elements with fun, highlighting colours and geometric patterning, offered in eight different colourways.
