A collection inspired by the aesthetic of Scandinavian interiors and the concept of ‘Hygge’, discovered whilst studying for a year in Denmark. Hygge has many meanings that revolve around establishing a homely, cosy and comforting atmosphere. Inspired by this the project began by looking at a variety of patterns and textures in various compositions. Glass and shiny surfaces, plants, rocks and foods styled together have been combined to evoke various moods. This has inspired the shapes and colours throughout the collection, where print, weave and ceramic techniques are combined to create a variety of delicate and rustic textural surfaces that create a mood of calm and charm.
The deep blues and cool greys within the ROLIG collection, instils what the Danish word suggests, a sense of calm and tranquillity. Within the textured layers, shades of blue are combined on glossy and tactile surfaces. Inspired by crystalline forms and mottled textures, glass and ceramics are softened with sheepskin and leather, and silver highlights are found within clusters of beaded details.
