Continuing its celebrations of 50 years of design and manufacture in contract textiles, this month Skopos takes inspiration from its Time collection…
Making its first appearance in 2006, the Time collection brought together geometric outlines and more organic silhouettes, wet-printed onto the ‘Cool Linen’ cloth. The linen/cotton mix base-cloth added natural beauty to the collection, and the series of graphic shapes kept the collection eye-catching, yet simple. Among the designs, Silence gave a feeling of retro calm, with its stretched ogee shape and vertical movement. Keeping the same scale and pattern, the updated design has simply been given a linen background texture for our Anniversary collection and is offered in two colourways. Launching in 2022 as ‘Silenzio’, the design will be produced initially on our Varese base-cloth, a velvet upholstery quality with a kitten soft touch.
To accompanying Silenzio, Skopos have adapted another design from Time, Moment, to inspire its second October design. The new design, ‘Momentum’, brings together the angular graphic blocks of Moment with an additional outline to create a more dreamy, abstract design with more textural interest. This design is being sampled initially on the Ashford linen-look base-cloth.
Designs for October are available on any of the standard print base-cloths and are being offered in two colourways. For alternative colourways, in-line with minimum order requirements, the Skopos design team will be able to help.
