Skinny laMinx has introduced a new collection to its striking textile portfolio.
The collection, entitled Brise Soleil (meaning “break the sun”), is inspired by Modernist concrete and perforated brickwork.
Heather Moore, founder of Skinny laMinx, has been capturing the shapes and patterns of these mid-century bricks across the world, from Japan to Los Angeles. These structures became the muse for the latest range.
The range consists of three textile designs in three colourways.
Weft is available in concrete, petrol and sunray. Aperture is available in concrete, teal and moonbeam and Breeze is available in concrete, petrol and moonbeam.
In addition to these prints, two Skinny laMinx favourites have been re-released in a new colourway too. Woodpile has been released in teal and Brancusi Stripe in shell.
Heather Moore also approached four local furniture manufacturers to showcase the new Skinny laMinx fabrics on a signature furniture item. LIM’s steel daybed uses the Weft design and The New Modernist’s 1950s reproduction sofa features Aperture, both in concrete. Saks Corner’s Clarke Sofa is upholstered in Breeze in moonbeam while Bofred used Breeze in petrol for the Harold Sofa.
