Personal Landscapes

The vastness of the sea, the drama of the mountains, the softness of a lake landscape, the security of a valley or the density of a forest. It is not surprising that artists of all origins have always been fascinated by the experience of landscapes. In Europe, for example, landscape painting has been an independent art form since the Renaissance and in Asian cultures landscale depiction dates back to the 6th century. The concept of Land Art, which originated in the 1980s, abstracts nature by artists using elements such as stone, wood or pigments to create a subjective interpretation of nature.

This collection is the result of a search for traces of this artistic exploration of nature, whether through the sweeping view of landscape silhouettes or through a very close observation of the sensual nature of original surfaces such as earth, water, sand, stone, wood or moss.

Thus LAKEVIEW shows quite vividly an idealised lake landscape. ELDORADO is an abstract work of art inspired by a mythical landscape, for which metallic pigments were applied by hand between elaborately embroidered stripe motifs. The fine horizontal stripes of CANYON play with the colour gradient of multi-coloured rock formations of canyons and deserts. Like a blurred landscape in the distance, PANORAMA also has a vibrating colour gradient. The expressive plain fabrics HILLSTRIPE, NOMAD, PAMIR, BIRCHWOOD and SAHARI are reminiscent of lavender fields, moss, birch bark or sand dunes.

PERSONAL LANDSCAPES picks up on the sensual relationship between humans and nature and transfers it to another form of landscape, namely the residential landscape, which today more than ever is, like nature, a place of familiarity and relaxation.

This abstract work of art is inspired by ELDORADO, the legendary golden landscape. The beauty of the special embroidery is enriched by hand-painted brush strokes, which are applied individually with metallic pigments.

This extraordinary textile is modelled on the unmistakable relief of birch bark and has a particularly vivid effect through the combination of several weaving and printing techniques. Against the light, the different transparencies create a lively play of shadows.

The extensive landscape of the Pamir Mountains, also known as the "roof of the world", was the inspiration for this elegant bouclé upholstery fabric. It brings elegance and naturalness into perfect balance in 15 colour variations. From a distance, a plain fabric, but close up a fine, curly relief unfolds with a pleasantly soft feel.Made of 45% recycled cotton.

This new, translucent quality bathes every room in pleasantly soft light. With a railroaded fabric height of approx. 310 cm, ULTRA PLUS is even slightly higher than its popular predecessor ULTRA.Consists of 100% recycled and flame-retardant Polyester.

This elegant and softly falling satin is the latest development of our successful classic SOLICE, now with a silk matte surface. Like its predecessor, SOLICE MAT RE FR is flame retardant. However, for this new quality a 52% recycled polyester yarn is used, which is obtained from used PET bottles, in order to place as little as possible a strain on our environment whilst still maintaining high functional demands. Consists of 52% recycled Polyester.

The fine horizontal stripes of CANYON play with the variations in multi-coloured layers of rock, as we find them in the deeply cut canyons of famous mountain formations and deserts. The transparent base fabric lends lightness to the straight stripes and effortlessly lays itself into a softly flowing wave movement at the window.

HILLSTRIPE captivates with its hand crafted character. Fine hand-stitched tucks form vertical elevations that give the plain linen fabric a lively surface. In 14 beautiful colours, HILLSTRIPE celebrates the richness and depth of natural colour worlds.
