Hemp and Cotton: Textiles in Wet Areas

A set of natural textiles for use in a wet area. The bath towels are thick, long-staple cotton, fluffy in texture, undyed ivory in color, folded and stacked on a wooden shelf; several thin linen bath towels hang on a wooden rod, the kind that dries quickly and softens with each wash. The bath mat is coarsely woven cotton, thick and absorbent, laid directly on the stone floor. A coarse linen cloth is draped over a bench. All items are without patterns, embroidery, or brand logos, with colors limited to ivory and light gray. Since wet area materials are often hard and cold stone, these textiles are the only soft elements. Avoid: using synthetic quick-dry towels, adding high-saturation colors and patterns, hiding textiles in closed cabinets where they cannot be seen, making textiles appear damp or moldy.

一組濕區使用的天然織品。浴巾是厚重的長絨棉,質地蓬鬆、顏色是未染的象牙,摺好疊在一段木質層板上;另有幾條薄的亞麻浴巾掛在木桿上,那種乾得快、越洗越軟的類型。地墊是粗織的棉,厚而吸水,直接鋪在石材地坪上。長凳上搭著一條粗麻的布。全部沒有圖案、沒有繡字、沒有品牌標識,顏色只有象牙與淺灰兩種。因為濕區的材料多半是硬而冷的石,這些織品是唯一柔軟的東西。避免:使用化纖的快乾毛巾、加入高彩度的顏色與圖案、把織品塞進封閉的櫃子看不見、讓織品顯得潮濕發霉。
