For our design of the five star Nobis Hotel at Norrmalmstorg in central Stockholm we custom designed the curtain fabric pattern Örsta. The Öland pattern is a sister pattern based on another of our architectural projects, a private house located in the north part of greater Stockholm.

Like with the first pattern, we decided to look at our own architecture and more specifically on the drawings of selected house projects. In the drawings we found graphic play of lines that, when they were repeated, created interesting abstract patterns.

Öland is a large populated Swedish island in the Baltic Sea. In the small village of Sandvik on Öland’s west coast, we have designed a private house that includes long facades with roof drawing an asymmetrical, shallow V-shape. Strictly stacked, these facades created a classic plaid/striped pattern, but with a subtle but charitable twist.

Öland has two sister patterns named Örsta and Edsviken.
