“Our new collections perfectly encapsulate the spirit of Fermoie: inspiration from nature, love of colour, artistry and hand-drawn design, and a playful, idiosyncratic approach to familiar patterns and styles. Maple beautifully evokes a walk in the woods as the leaves fall; and with Ticking, we’ve taken what designers have known for decades is a wonderfully versatile design and added our own unique perspective. And while each design has its own individual colour palette, these have been so skilfully created that, to the eye, they appear to match precisely, making it easy for designers and their clients to combine, contrast and have fun with them.”

Tom Helme, co-founder Fermoie

Fermoie is delighted to present two new fabric collections for Spring 2024. The new fabrics, Maple and Ticking, join the extensive Fermoie family of beautiful hand-drawn designs, produced entirely in-house on specially woven basecloths.

MAPLE

Maple is inspired by strolls through the ancient woodlands that surround the Fermoie Studio, deep in the Wiltshire countryside.

The hand-drawn leaves seem to flutter and shimmer as they’re stirred by a brisk breeze; the subtle, hypnotic repeat is both full of life and movement, and deeply soothing to the eye.

Familiar Fermoie stitching gives the 100% linen basecloth a soft woven texture and adds depth and complexity to the colours. As well as fabrics by the metre, the new Maple collection also includes four new cushions.

TICKING

For decades, interior designers have loved ticking for its effortless ability to blend with other patterns and prints, particularly florals. Simple and structural, its bold stripes are perfectly at home in almost any setting and aesthetic.

True to form, Fermoie has taken its own distinctive, playful path with this familiar design. In place of the traditional regular, woven stripes, Fermoie Ticking uses hand-drawn lines of different thicknesses to create contrasting bands of light and dark. The new collection, which includes four cushions, is produced on linen union basecloth.

Perfect Together

Maple and Ticking are each offered in 15 colourways. To the eye, the colours appear identical in both collections. However, though they share a common colour story, the two sets of colourways were created separately and specifically for each design using different blends of pigments, so are not, in fact, the same at all. This time-consuming, painstaking process gives each collection its own unique identity; at the same time, they complement each other perfectly, making it easy to match, combine and play with their contrasting moods, textures and patterns.
