Perennials and Sutherland | Wabi Sabi

Perennials and Sutherland present Wabi Sabi, the new Spring 2024 collection of fabrics and rugs made from 100% dyed acrylic, as well as a selection of outdoor furniture

With a strong reference to the imperfection celebrated by Japanese aesthetics, the collection revolves around the idea that objects gain personality over time and through wear. Basing on this concept, the fabric collection introduces four new textures – Kikko, Arigato, Paper Crane, and Sake Stripe – and 19 new color variations inspired by nature.

The collection also includes Tatami and Taki, two new designs of versatile and highly customizable rugs. Designed by creative director Eugeni Quitllet, the Wabi Sabi outdoor furniture collection uses teak and aluminum as a vehicle to play with shapes created by light, and includes four seats, a pouf, and a coffee table.
