weave
This fabric was created using a small piece of the ‘Gum Nutty’ lino cut, which was repeated and inverted over and over again to achieve this distinctive woven pattern - clean organic lines with subtle undulations of light and dark, creating a electronic wave-like ripple.
I wanted to re-create a particular design sensibility with this pattern, which is influenced by the work and Charles and Ray Eames and the mobiles of Alexander Calder - simple, fluid and functional. It is more personally inspired by a beach house my grandfather built after the war in Queensland in the early 1950’s with rooms full of filtered light through venetion blinds, natural hoop pine wall panels, low slung armchairs and a classic pink, yellow and blue kitchen.
