INTRODUCING THE
MICHAEL S SMITH COLLECTION
BY HARTMANN&FORBES
A UNIQUE COLLECTION
created hand-in-hand with renowned designer Michael S Smith. The blend 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.
Japón Garden
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
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.
JUNSEI
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Tailored-to-Size Colourweave
Inspired by traditional Japanese screens, this refined weave is handwoven with thinly sliced bamboo, allowing the sunlight to gently filter in.
CITY STITCH
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
This handwoven design is a modern interpretation based on ancient Japanese Sashiko stitching from the Edo period. A unique weave that combines functional embroidery with meticulous, decorative stitching to create a sophisticated mix of texture, color and pattern.
KAMAKURA
NATURAL 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.
CASCADE
NATURAL WINDOWCOVERING | Woven-to-Size Grassweave
An elegant and sophisticated use of the traditional striation pattern, employing soft colors and handwoven threads. The vertical stitch pattern is asymmetrical and highlighted by subtle but glamorous metallic strands.
MAJORELLE
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
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 effects the eye’s perception of this timeless classic, which straddles the line between art and design.
Agra Lattice
NATURAL WALLCOVERING
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.
