The impressive floral print design of SO AVANT-GARDENING! forms a bridge between different artists from different eras. Drawings and paintings from the archives of the Rijksmuseum and the New York Public Library served as sources of creative inspiration. The Christian Fischbacher design studio captured the key integral elements of these artworks, composed them anew, and used a digital, photographic collage to narrate a fascinating story on fabric. The intense, colourful pattern repeat is displayed on a background of cream and dark blue. The graphically stylised peacock feather elements evoke the Art Deco era. There is an enchanted garden that draws you into a voyage of discovery. SO AVANT-GARDENING! is available as a floor-to-ceiling digital print on a fabric quality that combines a fine PES filament warp with cotton and linen in the weft. This gives a lightly textured surface that allows light to reflect, and appears soft and voluminous to the touch, thanks to the Airo treatment, which is achieved mechanically, without the use of chemicals.
