Kvadrat Textile & Design's new monograph comes encased in a slipcover featuring a flock of pigment-stained sheep, a playful homage to the producers of its staple fabric

公司的自夸专著通常会直接进入我们的废品堆。但是，当话题是丹麦纺织品创新者Kvadrat时，你知道它至少值得一看。交织：Kvadrat纺织和设计价值远远超过这一点。

差不多半个世纪了。但同时，它也讲述了远远超出标准设计师-客户和艺术家-商业赞助人安排的关系。

正如萨维尔所说：“Kvadrat并不是某些营销策略的一部分，为了传达自己的品牌，有意进军艺术领域。”这还没有污染Kvadrat的工作方式，我希望永远不会。他们更多地参与其中，支持、开发和制造令人惊奇的事物，并以自由、创造性的努力的真正精神。“

The book, entitled 'Interwoven', is bound in woven wool

A spread from the book shows Kvadrat's stand during the Stockholm Furniture Fair 2013. Designed by UK-based duo Raw-Edges, the installation was constructed to create an intimate space inspired by Weeping Willow trees within a giant exhibition hall 

An image taken from the book features a structure built from 'North Tiles', designed by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec, with whom Kvadrat has developed a strong working relationship

'North Tiles' is a system of textile tiles that slot together to create or divide space, contributing colour, texture and soundproofing

'Textile Field', designed by the Bouroullec brothers, was installed in the Raphael Gallery of the Victoria and Albert Museum during London Design Festival 2011. It created a playful environment measuring 30mx8m in which visitors were invited to sit back and take in their surroundings

Polymath artist and designer Gunnar Aagaard Andersen's textile piece, 'Letters' was designed in 1955 and produced by Kvadrat in 2002. Here, his preliminary sketches and the final product are shown

In this archive image from the book, artist, entrepreneur and facilitator, Baron Percy von Halling-Koch presents Kvadrat's founders, Poul Byriel and Erling Rasmussen with a fabric-themed tandem bicycle in 1980

'Hallingdal Table', designed by Fredikson Stallard in 2012 uses Kvadrat's classic Hallingdal fabric, designed by Nana Ditzel in 1965. Packed tightly using an industrial ratchet strap, the fabric becomes strong and solid like wood. Famous for its durability and rich colour palette, Hallingdal is still one of Kvadrat's best-selling products

For this piece, 'Selvedge', Raw-Edges deconstructed Hallingdal fabric, emphasising the beauty of its structural qualities

Claiming a 'surface that has to appeal both visually and tacitly as well as looking good under any lighting conditions' as his rule for fabric design, fashion textile and colour advisor Giulio Ridolfo worked with designer Patricia Urquiola to create 'The Dwelling Lab' in collaboration with Kvadrat and BMW. The installation was shown during the Salone del Mobile in Milan in 2010
