the beautiful textiles above and below are the work of leanne culy, an incredible designer based in new zealand. leanne recently designed a line of fabric for home base collections in NZ that reflects her love of nature, a sense of softness and the sense of place that she feels is unique to new zealand. all of the fabrics in leanne’s line for home base collections are produced with the least environmental impact possible- using biodegradable yarns grown without pesticides. you can find more information on leanne’s collection right here- and all of the beautiful photos above and below are by leanne’s husband! thanks to cushla at home base for the tip. have a wonderful weekend!
