The blending of Michael’s historically referenced patterns in bold, simple colors, with the textural detailing expected from HARTMANN&FORBES, offers a globally-infused collection of natural handcrafted window and wallcoverings.
At once romantic and refined, our Madeleine wallcovering was inspired by a fern motif often used by Madeleine Castaing, the iconic 20th-century French designer and antiques dealer. Natural sisal is meticulously embroidered in a palette of sage, linden, and teal, creating a dimensional pattern of interlocking ferns, which is framed by a crisp windowpane grid. The wallcovering’s lyrical pattern and earthy colors pair perfectly with the Jacob Stripe windowcovering.
For Jacob Stripe, lustrous, textural ramie is handwoven in a variegated-stripe pattern that recalls the charming scalloped shop awnings found in French seaside villages. Its relaxed, sun-washed look and soft-hued palette provide the perfect complement to the Madeleine wallcovering.
Merging geometric shapes with Japanese imagery, this complex composition depicts beauty and serenity in a thoughtful, artistic way. In transposing the stenciled design to a textured grasscloth, Smith has created a layered backdrop that can coordinate seamlessly with both modern and traditional interiors.
Inspired by the famous French artist Jacques Majorelle and his world-renowned garden and home in Marrakesh, Morocco, this sublime wallcovering features graphic arrangements reminiscent of architectural lattice screens found in palaces and temples from Morocco to the Middle East. These detailed configurations are emphasized by a warm natural color palette printed upon a precise, finely woven ground. Movement and light affect the eye’s perception of this timeless classic, which straddles the line between art and design.
An enduring, woven wallcovering imbued with rich, bold patterns that evoke flora in unusual and unexpected ways. Inspired by antique, hand-carved abaca stencils, these designs bring depth and interest to any room. Hand-mixed, saturated pigments are printed over a neutral background to create a warm, artistic and inviting effect.
Inspired by beautiful, hand-turned spindle designs used throughout Indian architecture for generations, Agra Lattice depicts a mazelike, hand-stenciled pattern with abstracts that play upon form, texture and movement. Smith has adapted the traditional spindle motif and has reinterpreted it into a rhythmic arrangement on rich, woven wallcovering that is as meditative as it is vibrant.
