ROOTED IN NATURE
Reimagined natural forms layered with rich organic materials to create unique textures and visual interest is the vision behind our collaboration with designer Lisa Kanning. Her collection of natural window and wall coverings is detailed with intricate patterns that mimic those found in nature while maintaining a sophisticated sensibility that suits a range of settings.
Also from the H&F Studio, we are expanding our Woven-to-Size Grassweave Collection with a new series woven from super-refined banana fiber. We hope this season’s introductions will encourage you anew to continue creating a sense of sanctuary rooted in natural design.

Zenith
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
Slender metallic stripes shimmer against a field of sheer banana fiber in this series. The delicate tone-on-tone design is woven with dimensional traces of copper or silver that gracefully descend the fabric, their vertical trajectory evoking a streaking star in the night sky.
Sycamore
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
Reminiscent of Sycamore tree bark, this series features a captivating camouflage pattern. The mottled motif is rendered in a complex layering of silver-painted paper, laser-cut cork, sisal, and metallic embroidery, the interplay of materials bringing rich depth and organic beauty.
Birch
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
Inspired by natural birch bark, this series reinterprets its namesake in a richly textural design. The large-scale, dimensional pattern is elaborately stitched with slate or gold threads that play a delicate counterpoint to a rough-hewn cork ground over metallic paper.
Fungi
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
Meticulously hand-placed Mendong flowers distinguish this design. Woven of weighty ramie, individual flowers are inserted into the weft, creating a series of dark slubby streaks that recall the frilly edge of a mushroom cap sprouting from the forest floor.
Marsh
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
A desolate field of wizened grass is reimagined as a vibrant landscape in this series. Tonal paper weave is embroidered with dimensional stitches that free and separate the fibers. Its fringed eyelash effect is reminiscent of the graceful movement of grass in a marsh.
Cenote
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
Long, hanging vines suspended over Yucatan sinkholes served as inspiration for this earthy yet elegant series. Refined abaca is woven with gleaming gold, silver, and copper threads, producing textural striations that conjure the rich dimension and natural colors of these underground caves.
Rocks
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
Faux suede intricately stitched in complementary colors creates this collection’s trompe l’oeil effect of strewn rocks. Artful tonal shifts produce a play of shadow and angles that lend depth and detail to the pattern, the sheen from the embroidery enhancing its dimensional quality.

REFINED ELEGANCE, NATURALLY
Handwoven of lustrous banana fiber and almost too perfect for this world, Ethereal is added to the Grassweave Woven-to-Size Collection – striking just the right balance of texture and sheen for any modern setting.
Ethereal
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
Woven by hand of sheer banana fiber, this series expresses a delicate sensibility in four natural colorways. Ethereal’s tonal, silky-soft fibers and natural sheen lend a light, refined look while subtle, hand-tied knots add a hint of relaxed texture.
