Elegant, Durable Walls Three Ways. Meet Lyra.

Each of our three new woven wallcoverings features a Crypton® Wall backing and finish, providing permanent stain, spill and odor protection, plus bleach cleanability.

Lyra focuses on the precise interaction of tape yarn in both warp and weft to create a refined surface. Its complex weave invites close attention while remaining calm at a distance, bringing subtle detail to walls alongside its rigorous performance.

With the Launch of Linger, we’re circling back to a partnership that helped shape sustainable product design.​
​
Before the Cradle to Cradle standard existed, Designtex collaborated with founders William McDonough and Michael Braungart to create the first biological-nutrient upholstery, Climatex Lifecycle™, and with McDonough again on the first antimony-free polyester. Both were later featured in the book Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things.​

Now, Linger carries that history forward.​ Learn more at the link in bio. by @designtex_inc

Linger and Abode are our first upholstery products with Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs)— standardized, independently verified reports that summarize a product life cycle assessment (LCA).

EPDs provide data about environmental impacts, including embodied carbon, across defined stages of a product’s lifecycle. This gives designers credible information to support carbon-related building project goals and make more informed specifications.

With Linger and Abode, comfort comes with greater transparency. by @designtex_inc

A new leaf. Meet Kuwa.

Kuwa’s fig leaf pattern comes from pounding plants directly onto fabric, a natural dyeing technique called Tatakizome. No two leaves are the same, and the technique faithfully preserves their distinct anatomy, color, and beauty. Kuwa embodies biophilic design through its palette, the mark of the human hand, and its organic forms.

Shape shifters. Meet Kage, Kiku and Tsuki.

The Itajime series comes from a Japanese block-resist dyeing technique — folding textile between clamped wood blocks, then bathing it in natural dye made from indigo, cutch, marigold and more. Artist and designer Alisa Benfey repeated the process to build layered color, echoing the “in-betweenness” of her Japanese-American heritage.

Kage (“shadow”) — blurred, overlapping squares

Kiku (“chrysanthemum”) — flower-shaped blocks turned floral

Tsuki (“moon”) — rhythmic circles tracing lunar phases

Bathed in botanicals. Meet Sora.

Sora, the Japanese word for “sky,” results from Shibori, a traditional tie-dye technique. The cloud-like motif comes from scrunching the fabric, then immersing it in dyes made from avocado pits, indigo, oak bark, and other botanicals.
