Furniture brand 'Hem' drew inspiration from the natural world when designing its 2017/2018 furniture collection, titled 'Chlorophyll and Ink.'
The collection, which consists of rugs, pouffes and more, borrows elements from exotic plants, merging organic colors and shapes with artificial motifs like shimmering fabrics. The line features the two new products in addition to a collection of exciting new colors, ranging from deep blues, to natural oranges and pinks. The pouffes feature a gently curved design, which is both sophisticated and inviting. The hand-woven carpets, called 'Dune,' are available in two sizes and four modest color combinations. Lastly the 'Hai Chair' that was originally released in 2013 has been redesigned with new lines and is available in two fresh patterns.
With colors ranging from deep blue to an organic beige, the Chlorophyll and Ink collection offers something unique to any homeowner.
