  Through our design practice, we seek to create wallcoverings that are inspired by fluid forms found both in natural and urban landscapes. We do this in order to inspire introspection, productivity and/or tranquility. Through this process, we’ve discovered that our brand has always had a special connection to the color blue as it is one of the most commonly used colors in our work.

In May 2022, we released the Mystique Collection, featuring the ALPENGLOW pattern, which was inspired by the warm light that reflects off of a mountain during transitional moments of the day. Available in four different colorways: Earth, Garnet, Mica, and Topaz, this design is one of the centerpieces of the collection so we wanted to take a moment to dig a little deeper into the making of this product line and go behind the creation of...
