Silk and Linen: Oriental Textures of Fabric

A set of textiles with an oriental texture. In front of the window is a thin layer of silk or gauze, off-white in color, light and slightly lustrous. When light passes through, it is softened, and the warp and weft weave patterns are visible. When a gentle breeze blows, the entire piece slowly undulates. The upholstery of the seating is coarse-woven linen and ramie, with a stiff texture, rough surface, natural color variations, and uneven yarn thickness, in oat and taupe colors. The rug is hand-woven wool, with a short, dense pile, in the darkest shade. All these textiles are plain, without any patterns or embroidery; their richness comes from the different ways their textures react to light. Avoid: adding patterns, embroidery, and traditional motifs, using smooth satin and synthetic fibers, dyeing textiles in high-saturation colors, reducing the variety of textures.

一組帶有東方質地的織品。窗前是一層薄的絹或紗,顏色是米白,質地輕而略帶光澤,光穿過時被柔化並可以看見經緯的織紋,微風吹來時整片緩慢起伏。座位的軟包是粗織的亞麻與苧麻,質地硬挺、表面粗糙、有天然的色差與粗細不勻的紗線,顏色是燕麥與灰褐。地毯是手織的羊毛,絨面短而密,顏色是最深的一階。這些織品全部是素面的,沒有任何圖案與刺繡;豐富度來自質地在光下的不同反應。避免:加入圖案、刺繡與傳統紋樣、使用光滑的緞面與化纖、把織品染成高彩度的顏色、讓質地的種類減少。
