A celebration of natural materials, Journey transforms walls into works of art through texture, movement, and handcrafted detail.
A Return to Natural Materials
As designers increasingly seek authenticity and warmth, natural materials remain at the center of the conversation. Throughout Journey, raffia, hemp, paper, and wood are elevated through innovative techniques that highlight their inherent beauty.
Raffia Atelier combines intricate embroidery with richly textured, handwoven raffia and blurs the line between decorative art and wallcovering. The delicate floral motifs introduce dimension and movement while celebrating the handcrafted qualities designers continue to gravitate toward.
A new specialty grasscloth collection, Cirque de Soho transforms traditional grasscloth through an artisanal mosaic technique. Hand-laid pieces create geometric forms that bring depth, pattern, and rhythm to the wall. The result feels both grounded in craftsmanship and strikingly modern.
Inspired by Global Craft Traditions
Journey also reflects an appreciation for the design traditions that have influenced interiors for generations. Rather than reproducing historical techniques, our new collection interprets them through a contemporary lens.
Essex Weave takes inspiration from the longstanding Japanese practice of weaving with paper. The result is a refined surface with a subtle, tonal texture and a nearly seamless appearance. Its quiet sophistication speaks to a growing desire for understated materials that bring depth without overwhelming a space.
The influence of Japanese artistry continues in Hana, a statement-making design inspired by the sculptural beauty of cherry blossoms. Handcrafted metallic leaf is layered over authentic wood veneer for a wallcovering that feels both decorative and architectural. It highlights how traditional craftsmanship can create something entirely new.
Storytelling Through Design
Beyond texture and technique, Journey embraces the idea that walls can tell a story. Idyllic reimagines an antique landscape engraving as an immersive mural, transforming historical artwork into a contemporary design statement. Rich in detail and scale, the collection reflects a growing interest in interiors that feel layered, personal, and expressive. Rather than serving as a backdrop, the wall becomes part of the narrative itself.
The Journey Continues
Across every category, Journey celebrates the intersection of nature, craftsmanship, and design. From embroidered raffias and paper weaves to immersive murals and handcrafted finishes, the collection honors enduring techniques while embracing fresh perspectives. The result is a thoughtfully curated assortment designed to bring texture, artistry, and authenticity to modern interiors.
