Saxion, a textile of singular character, represents a dialogue between the rigour of upholstery and the fluid grace of haute couture. It is a crisp, modern bouclé that eschews the ordinary, offering a natural structure that invites the hand while maintaining a silhouette of architectural precision. To experience Saxion is to understand that true luxury is not merely seen, it is felt in the soft, enduring finish of a surface designed to age with poetic dignity.
The soul of this collection lies in its revolutionary composition. This new generation of bouclé features a specially developed yarn, meticulously engineered to achieve a timeless modernist quality. It strikes a rare balance: it possesses the durability required for the most storied furniture pieces, yet radiates a warm, gentle expression that softens the edges of contemporary living. It is a testament to the Kvadrat philosophy, a commitment to technical mastery that never sacrifices the sensory beauty of the material.
Guided by the discerning eye of Raf Simons, the palette of Saxion is an exercise in chromatic sophistication. Drawing inspiration from the weathered elegance of vintage Japanese textiles, Simons has curated 17 shades that possess an incredible depth of pigmentation. From the commanding presence of ultramarine and sunflower yellow to the delicate nuances of rhodonite pink, each hue is a signature. These are not merely colours; they are atmospheres, designed by a master who understands that a shade can define the very spirit of a room.
Complementing these vibrant statements is a suite of neutrals that serve as the foundation of the collection. A curated grey scale, ranging from the ethereal light of talc to the grounded strength of slate and cement, exists alongside organic jades and mosses. These tones, paired with the depth of burnt sienna and porcelain, ensure that Saxion transcends fleeting trends. It is more than a fabric; it is a heritage piece for the modern interior, echoing a dedication to artisanal integrity and the pursuit of the extraordinary.
