Franquemont creates meticulously crafted, refined fabrics and wallpapers inspired by historic textiles. Founded by Svetlana Willems, the studio reinterprets the heirloom batiks of their namesake Caroline von Franquemont, 17th-century Dutch textiles, and other archival motifs into contemporary works of craftsmanship. Woven and printed in England, each design is rich in depth, character, and beauty.

The Story behind
Global textile traditions preserved and reimagined
Franquemont was founded in 2023 by Svetlana Willems, inspired by a love of historic textiles discovered while renovating her 18th-century canal house in Amsterdam. Trained at Central Saint Martins and mentored by Emma Mawston, former Head of Design at Liberty Fabrics, she researches not only patterns, but also the colour, scale, context, and making of archival textiles. The result is rich, timeless fabrics and wallpapers that combine historic depth with contemporary craftsmanship.
