Floyd - 0723

Floyd is a discreet and precise upholstery textile designed by Åsa Pärson. It offers an optimal combination of manmade and natural materials: the durability of polyester yarns with the natural expression of undyed wool yarns. The wool yarns, which are processed as little as possible, give the surface of Floyd a subtly striated look. This effect is emphasised by the solid, bolder colours of the polyester yarns. Due to the natural properties of the wool, small clusters of yarn may appear on the surface of Floyd. This effect, which is more pronounced in the lighter colourways, gives the textile a playful look.

The 23 colourways of Floyd offer different interpretations of primary and secondary colours, such as blue, red and green. They combine classic neutral nuances, such as cream, with highlight tones like intense greens and pinks. Åsa Pärson: ‘We often consider the natural world as a range of natural tones, such as beige, greys and browns. But it also consists of sparkling, almost neon-like, colours. When these are combined it is as if they support each other and create an even stronger natural look.’
