A journey in colour, taken together.
A fantasy of travel through colour escapism with a focus on structure and composition, the culmination of a two year adventure uniting two designers. This collaboration explores global representations of colour as a form of expression, reimagining traditional weaving and embroidery techniques to find a shared creative identity, steeped in heritage.
With colour and composition at its core, this bold collection sees the introduction of a woven diamond pattern. Four designs introduce ten vibrant new hues to our heritage palette to create a contemporary collection full of energy and excitement.
MORELLA
A statement making border design which introduces a new diamond stripe amongst herringbone and rib sections. A design with energy and impact where patterned elements appear to sit on top of one another, encapsulated by a striking border.
MILA
Inspired by A Rum Fellow’s Ipala Stripe fabric, this classic understated border design cleverly combines multiple shades of the same colour to create a nuanced yet highly textured design. A subtle border is created where the density of colour falls and builds at the designs edge, bringing a quiet definition to the design.
KAHLO
The starting point for the collection, as both designers discovered they had simultaneously sketched versions of this bold ‘strike-through’ pattern. A contrasting rib background elevates vividly coloured and evenly spaced, diamond stripes.
ARTA
A re-working of a weaver’s favourite ‘Orkney (c.1994)’, traditionally designed to use up leftover yarn. A wide spectrum of multicolours in both vivid and pastel tones. This design works well as a backdrop of intricate stripes when hand-seamed together for rugs and wall-to-wall areas. Named after the multifaceted, kaleidoscopic nature of the colours found in precious stones.
