Collection Spotlight: Highlighting fresh perspectives from Wolf-Gordon products:
- Soleil — Designed for interiors requiring particularly high performance, this subtle geometric brings a calming vibe to busy spaces. Easy-on-the-eye rows of circles in graduated sizes — reflecting the rhythms in nature — are woven in 100% Crypton Green® polyester that contains 25% post-consumer and 45% pre-consumer recycled content.
- Vicious Circle by Ghislaine Viñas — Designer Ghislaine Viñas was inspired by the interaction between circles and lines found in Wolf-Gordon patterns from the 1980s in developing this large-scale geometric design. Dense versions of green, blue, and red — Viñas’s favorites — as well as several grays with subtle tonal streaks are represented in the seven colorways.
- Digital Sunset — Photography and hand-drawn patterning come together in Carla Weisberg’s exquisite digitally printed wallcovering. Warm and cool shades complement each other in an abstracted image that transforms the horizon into a vertical composition and turns our perspective sideways.
