HARTMANN&FORBES Opens New Showrooms in London and Paris

Two historic design capitals welcome the American house devoted to artisanal weaving and natural materials.

MARCH 2026 (TUALATIN, OREGON) — For nearly three decades, Hartmann&Forbes has quietly cultivated a reputation for exceptional handwoven design rooted in nature’s most refined materials. In 2026, the American house extends its presence in Europe with new partner showrooms in London and Paris — two cities whose design traditions are deeply intertwined with craft, heritage, and material culture.

Each space offers designers the opportunity to experience Hartmann&Forbes’ extensive library of handwoven shades, wallcoverings, and textiles, crafted from sustainably cultivated natural fibers and shaped through centuries-old weaving traditions. “

London and Paris have long been centers of design culture where craftsmanship and material integrity are deeply respected,” says Michael Jones, Founder and CEO of Hartmann&Forbes. “Since the beginning, our work has been devoted to preserving the art of artisanal weaving and allowing natural materials to shape the character of interior spaces. These partnerships bring our collections into dialogue with design communities that share that same reverence for enduring materials and thoughtful craft.”

Situated within the design epicenter of Chelsea Harbour, the London showroom presents Hartmann&Forbes in a calm, tactile setting where designers can encounter the subtle depth of handwoven materials. The space reflects a shared appreciation for quiet luxury, natural fibers, and the enduring beauty of craftsmanship. By appointment only. Grand opening March 2026.
