Just added some new pieces for Spring: fresh designs of our popular tea towels! You’ll recognize the zig zag pattern from our oblong pillows, but there’s one brand new pattern that debuts today. The name is pretty straightforward; I’m calling it: “Grid.”
The Grid pattern evolved from various sketches I’ve done over the past year, and is inspired by California Modernism. I had the Eames Case Study House #8 in mind, as well as artists working in Geometric Abstract or Hard-edge painting styles, like Karl Benjamin and Helen Lundeberg. Sol Lewitt‘s wall drawings were also an influence for the new Grid design.
I wanted to add these two geometric designs to round out the tea towel collection, which has been missing a hard-edge element since I retired the diamond print tea towel. Hoping you love these new additions! I’m excited to see how you use them in your beautifully modern kitchens.
A big thank you to Jessica Comingore for shooting these beautiful photos of the tea towels – check out more of her work here. We photographed the tea towels on beautiful brass hooks made by our friends at Scout Regalia, another wonderful LA-based design duo.
The tea towels are lovely, Erin! They all look fun, young and quirky! Awesome work.
