Casamance launched its first furnishing fabrics collection in 2000 bringing some real vision to the designinteriors market.Its contemporary designs, exquisite colours and variety of materials create an easy-recoginisable style. The collectionincludes furnishing fabrics, wallpapers and wall-covering for both domestic and contract interiors.
Casamance takes its inspiration from the love of beauty. Its exclusive designs are enhanced by subtle use of colours and sophisticated imagery.
The warmth of wool combined with beautiful textures give Casamance’sAymara collection an aura of comfort. Soft velvets, buttoned ribbons and graphic embroideries in bright colours, bring to life the neutral, contemporary colour palette of the fabrics.
Samarcande range of wallpapers evokes memories of distant travels and charmingly reinterprets oriental designs from the time of the great silk route in a thoroughly modern manner. A hint of cashmere discretely enlivened with a metal thread and wide graphical stripes, seemingly matured by time. The effects of the material are subtle and delicately inspired by the plant world. Warm colours, carefully chosen monochromes and ethnic tones mingle to create precious harmonies.
Holmia is a contemporary collection which expresses its originality through its play on light and textural effects. Fine shavings shaped into waves, subtle interlacing, a finesse and depth of lines and circles.
