Some of Cole & Son’s most beloved prints have inspired a fabric collection. The ‘Contemporary Collection – Fabrics’ is a curated range of textiles, including the lusciously leafed ‘Palm Jungle’, which is offered as a linen union and velvet, as well as the contemporary classic ‘Woods’. Launched at Salone del Mobile 2022 was an exciting new collaboration with Stella McCartney. ‘Fungi Forest’ – based on the designer’s summer 2022 toile de Jouy print – is reimagined as a wallcovering on the company’s most sustainable base to date: a new eco substrate derived from 79 per cent renewable fibres with a manufacturing process that produces 30 per cent less greenhouse gases than traditional non-woven wallcoverings.

Summer 2022 also sees the company pay homage to its roots with a collection of wallpapers titled ‘The Gardens’. Emanating from the world of art, ‘The Gardens’ tells the enduring story of nature’s vistas, as rendered through the artist’s brush. Hand-drawn and hand- painted over countless hours, the ever-changing light, colour palette, and organic movement witnessed in gardens and outside spaces is delicately captured with every stroke.

‘The Gardens: Vol. I’, wallpapers are a series of epic design stories each containing their own extraordinary chapters. Three distinct panoramas make up the collection: the romance of the sweeping English garden is met with the fanciful whimsy of flora and foliage of a sun-drenched land, with the narrative complete in the understated natural beauty of a woodland through the seasons. These expansive landscapes are complemented by two foliage designs of petite petals and a lush patchwork of inflorescence bursts that can either be used in isolation as an all-over print or as a coordinate to break up the panels.
