Freeform Linens with a Touch of Whimsy

Issue 22 · Australia and Beyond · May 28, 2012

I've long admired the free-form designs of Pamela Tang. An Australian native, Tang worked for 10 years as a professional interior designer in Singapore before returning to pursue her own signature style.

The designs of Pamela Tang are a study in contrasts. Crisp linen, cut into simple, organized shapes are trespassed almost haphazardly with zany, trailing stitches. Richly beautiful hues are punctured by thin threads, left dangling, unfinished, as if someone kicked over the sewing machine and then left in a huff. The results are utterly original, both lovely and dynamic.

Two Linen Sachets
