Still Water Collection A/W 26
Still Water was developed as an Autumn/Winter 2026 homewares collection exploring stillness, reflection and the quiet tension between movement and calm within natural landscapes. The project translated the subtle rhythms of water, mist and shoreline textures into a refined textile series designed for contemporary interiors.
Drawing on organic abstraction rather than literal motifs, the collection investigated fluid linework, layered tonal washes and tactile surface detail to evoke the atmosphere of early morning light across wetlands and lakes. The outcome was a cohesive suite of patterns that balanced softness with structure, designed to feel timeless, grounded and quietly sophisticated within the home.
STILL WATER MOODBOARD
The Still Water moodboard captured the quiet atmosphere of mist-covered wetlands and early morning lakesides, focusing on softened horizons, diffused light and gentle ripples. Weathered timber, pebbles and native reeds introduced tactile, organic texture, creating a calm and spacious composition that reflected stillness.
The palette drew from desaturated earthy tones establishing a restrained, reflective mood. These elements guided fluid linework, layered tonal washes and subtle abstraction, keeping the collection cohesive and timeless.
STILL WATER SELECTED PRINTS
STILL WATER PRINT MOCKUPS
The Still Water collection was applied across a cohesive soft furnishings range, including cushion covers, throws and towels. Each pattern was thoughtfully scaled to suit the proportions and function of each product.
Mockups were developed to visualise how the repeats translated across different fabrics and surfaces, ensuring the collection remained balanced, commercially considered and cohesive as a complete homewares offering.
