Leading Australian bed and bath brand Sheridan explores the diverse landscape of the Land Down Under – deserts, beaches and rainforests – and brings them together in its latest collection called "Into the Horizon."
In the words of general manager of Design Jo Jaggs, the inspiration for the collection came "from the possibilities of our great Australian landscape and transforming it into textiles and homewares that are beautiful, textural and luxurious.
After continual brainstorming and meticulous crafting, Sheridan Sydney Design Studio's artists and designers came up with a collection that makes use of organic neutrals, rich sateen blues, geometric weaves, hand drawn stripes and bold graphic prints – all of which intended to capture the sense of wonder felt when taking a journey to a new horizon.
"Into the Horizon" is composed of three sub collections, namely Out to Sea, Mirage, and Inland.
Taking cue from the Australian coastline and its iconic summer vibe, Out to Sea features Burnett (hand painted floral design inspired by the shimmering heat of a summer's day), Cannan (fully reversible design that features different textured bands of the classic stripe) and Wandana (hand painted geometric design inspired by the colors of landscape under the moonlight).
About 70 percent of the entirety of Australia is desert, and from these dry areas came the Mirage collection. Take a trip to the semi-arid flat soils while dozing off on Whitfield (lustrous 700-thread count, all-white linen with delicate tracery embroidery), Toolonga (textured jacquard weave inspired by the organic, wave-like patterns in the sand dunes), Landsdale (100 percent cotton jacquard weave inspired by the waves of the ocean), or Holloway (white-on-white sateen weave with a micro line of color).
Striking a balance between Australia's ocean and dry soil is its lush tropics. The Inland collection captures the vibrant color of the country's flora and fauna through Walkings (hand painted abstract work – using the impasto paint technique – inspired by the ever-changing hues of the Australian bush) and Shenton (layered panel print featuring the shade of jade as found in flowers, leaves and birds).
Sheridan's "Into the Horizon" collection takes everyone on a linen adventure –from floating far out into the ocean, to venturing across great plains and beyond, to reaching legendary deserts and lush eucalypt landscapes – while getting a good night's sleep.
Sheridan showroom is located at Level 4 Shangri-La Plaza, Edsa cor. Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyong City, and has outlets at Rustan’s in Makati and Alabang, and MakeRoom in Fort Bonifacio, Taguig.
