MARCH 2024 (TUALATIN, OR) – HARTMANN&FORBES, maker of natural, handwoven window and wallcoverings, is proud to announce the launch of its second collaboration with Portland, Oregon based interior designer Max Humphrey. Coming off the success of their Fall 2021 Collection, the update adds two colorways to Humphrey’s Gingham grassweave windowcovering in addition to two new designs, Herringbone and Trees. All the designs within the collection celebrate modern Americana and offer a fresh take on classic prints and patterns rendered in Hartmann&Forbes’ handwoven natural textiles.

WOVEN-TO-SIZE GRASSWEAVE WINDOWCOVERINGS

Gingham (in two new colorways) — Humphrey reimagines this traditional gingham check as a versatile neutral in his collection. Its simple, medium-scale motif is loomed of natural ramie fibers, creating subtle variations in each square that soften the geometric grid and highlight its handcrafted quality. The weft fibers are dyed to match the warp, infusing the two-tone pattern with graphic impact and visual dimension.

Herringbone — Inspired by modern Americana and rustic alpine settings, this design is reminiscent of iconic camping blankets. Ramie is handwoven in a herringbone pattern that resembles miniature mountain peaks and rendered in an earthy tone-on-tone palette for visual depth and versatile style.

Trees — Humphrey’s yearlong road trip exploring America’s National Parks inspired this series. With a nod to nature, the tree motif is jacquard-handloomed of ramie in a forestry pine palette that brings the outdoors in.
