The collection offers two panel & acoustic and one upholstery fabric, all crafted from fully biodegradable materials (as tested under ASTM D5511 standard, biodegrading in under four years). These elements seamlessly integrate to form a harmonious whole, requiring minimal effort to create spaces that radiate both tranquility and purpose.

Tweedscape 2193 - Seating

Reminiscent of a traditional woven tweed but reimagined through a contemporary lens where grids take a backseat to a more organic pattern of softer edges and blurred lines, the visual structure is soft on the eye, exuding an inviting warmth that beckons to be touched.
