We are excited to introduce Allem Studio, a brand that brings a vibrant fusion of cultures to the world of textiles. Founded in 2010, Allem Studio started with a passion for block printing and a desire to bring color and sustainability to the every piece. With a focus on hand-looms and block prints, the brand is committed to creating textiles that are not only visually appealing but also environmentally friendly.
One of our favorite aspects of Allem Studio is the collaboration between the two friends after meeting in design school. Despite having different design aesthetics, their collaboration results in something truly special. Every input is deeply discussed, and they constantly challenge themselves by asking "why." This mindset ensures that their designs are purposeful and meaningful.
While what we see in their collection is only a small portion of their work, it's important to acknowledge the immense effort behind the scenes. Allem Studio has an extensive collection of designs, prints, and patterns that don't make the cut. They believe in the value of going small and slow, focusing on longer lead times and slightly higher prices to ensure quality and reduce the carbon footprint associated with fast fashion. Being a textile designer is more than just creating beautiful prints. It's about understanding how those prints will translate into textiles. Growing up with a strong textile background and working with other companies in product development has provided them with an intuitive sense of scale and design.
What sets Allem Studio apart is their commitment to creating modern heirlooms. They want their textiles to be cherished, reused, and passed down through generations. By knowing the people behind the brand and understanding the human connection to the process, customers can form a deeper connection with the textiles they purchase. When it comes to textiles, taking care of them ensures their longevity and contributes to textile preservation. These fabrics are not only strong and durable but also timeless and classic. The intention is for them to be used, reused, and even given as gifts, ensuring they become a cherished part of the family.
At Fritz Porter, we are thrilled to partner with Allem Studio and offer their beautiful and culturally inspired textiles to our community. Their passion for design, commitment to sustainability, and the human connection they bring to their craft is something we hope you all see when viewing the collection.
