Minneapolis presents a striking modernist herringbone composition conceived by textile designer Elise Djo-Bourgeois. This substantial pattern derives from a 1928 exhibition installation, realised collaboratively between the designer and her architect husband. The design engages with colour through expansive vertical stripes, their characterful depth achieved via traditional rotary screen printing techniques that impart a distinctive hand-painted sensibility. The result is a wallcovering of considerable visual presence and graphic clarity.
