Warp, Weft & Waste: Wallace Sewell + ReWeave

Founded in 1992 by Harriet Wallace-Jones and Emma Sewell, Wallace Sewell is a pioneering UK-based textile design studio with a vision to push the boundaries of craft and design using industrial techniques. With an impressive and diverse portfolio ranging from fashion to sport, international museums to London's transport system, global hotels to private commissions, you are bound to be familiar with some of their work already. As champions of British design and manufacturing, they continue to redefine the art of textiles with creativity and sustainability at its heart.

For their latest project, Wallace Sewell have partnered with ReWeave, an innovative design studio, led by Kirsty McDougall, that transforms woven fabric ‘waste’ into design-led textiles. More than just up-cycling, ReWeave aspires to serve as a blueprint for ideas about reuse, repurposing and circular design for manufacturers and brands, spearheading industry change.

Working with the inevitable offcuts from production, Wallace Sewell and ReWeave know that every piece of fabric is precious and has far more potential than heading to landfill. The collaborative cushion covers have been made from 100% lambswool pieces that have been carefully felted together to create a soft and unique textile.

Launching as part of London Craft Week, there will be an exclusive display in store alongside the new ReWeave cushions, as well as the signature Wallace Sewell retail collections. There is also a free ticketed evening event with the designers in conversation with a Q&A afterwards – limited spaces and booking is essential.
