Rob Gregory scratches the surface of interiors.

500 KVADRAT

Dutch textile designer Jeroen Vinken has created a collection of woven curtains. In subdued colours they comprise practically endless pattern repeats. Jeroen's goal is to develop new images, new visual representations and tactile experiments. His inspiration comes from techniques and materials, trying not to limit himself and making extensive use of the technical capabilities provided by computers. The collection comprises four designs in a satin weave using cut-technique which gives the curtains fascinating light-and-shade effects and a semi-transparent look.
