CLOTH: CONTEMPORARY TEXTILES

Cloth, a small independent fabric company based in Australia, was definitely one of my favorite finds in Sydney. When my mom and I visited Sydney a few years ago, we spent hours in this boutique, rummaging through bins of remnant fabrics, each one more beautiful than the next. We found out that the inspiration for the patterns comes from a connection to nature, specifically the strength, austerity and scale of the Australian landscape. 

Cloth makes and sells the fabric as well as all rugs, furniture, wallpaper and art. They work with local crafts people the old fashioned way, slowly, one product at a time. The fabric is screen printed by the metre on a long table in a tin shed in country New South Wales. The patterns and the products are uniquely Austrlian, the perfect souvenir from the design savy city.
