Charlotte Taylor S/S 2012: amazing on many different levels.

nabi boubou.




More silk scarves from an old favorite.

If you happen to be in Paris, see their new collection Nabi Boubou debut at Capsule.

navajo blankets.



Maybe it's because we live in the Southwest, but I like to think my chances of coming across the perfect Navajo rug or blanket in an antique/thrift store are pretty high. This collection (via here) from the Library of Anthropology in Santa Fe is fantastic.

waterloop.



Textiles from Maarten Kolk and Guus Kusters, created from photographs of water in Iceland (glaciers, geothermal spas, geysers, rivers, waterfalls, and more).

wolfum.




I've been eyeing Wolfum textiles for awhile; thinking it might be time to bring home a pillow or some napkins.

barron and larcher.






The next big project I'm going to explore is textile design. Phyllis Barron and Dorothy Larcher were hand-blockprinters from Britain in the 1920s and '30s. I love looking to the past and seeing designs that are still relevant today (another example: Sonia Delauney).

wearable, workable joy.



A peek inside Marimekko's Helsinki printing plant.

teixidors.





Teixidors has a great brand identity (designed by clase bcn) and some gorgeous products.

joanna fowles.







Feeling super inspired by printed textile designer Joanna Fowles, a recent graduate from Chelsea College of Art & Design. Some serious talent and gorgeous work.

minä perhonen.





Whimsical prints and textiles from favorite Japanese fashion brand Minä Perhonen. If I ever make it to Japan, I'd love to step in one of their shops - they look beautiful.

light and bright.





More neutral with a little neon in these lovely images.

karen barbé.






Handcrafted textiles and accessories.

under covers.




While hunting for a new Duvet for my master + guest bedroom, I found a few gems at Urban. Loving the top right (even though it's way girly for my taste) but sadly it doesn't come in a King.
