About this work

People of means hung the walls of their sitting rooms with decorative panels of this kind of fabric. Amsterdam designer Chris Lebeau created patterns based on nature. He dispersed leaves, calyxes and winged insects, for example, in a strict rhythmic order over the surface of the cloth.
