SIMON KEY BERTMAN ABOUT THE DESIGN
OF THE LOOM THROWS:
"I am fascinated by playing with form and colour to come up with a dynamic, geometric pattern. There is a carefully selected sys­tematic pattern behind LOOM, that at once is perfectly ordered and yet appears random. LOOM is hand-woven and crafted from the softest cotton. The weaving technique and colour composition of LOOM creates a light and airy structure and the expression of the throw changes depending on how you fold it. LOOM throw is softness, colourful structure and craftsmanship – all woven together."
