The Slow Color collection by artist Alisa Benfey merges traditional Japanese botanical dyeing techniques with high‑performance, biobased materials to create textiles and wallcoverings that showcase nuanced, hand‑crafted colors and patterns inspired by nature. Featuring pieces such as the Kusaki upholstery, Kusaki Wall, Sora textile, and four additional patterns (Kage, Kiku, Tsuki, Kuwa), the line uses natural dyes from plants, roots, and botanicals, printed on Designtex’s non‑vinyl substrate to meet rigorous performance standards for contract, healthcare, and hospitality environments while reducing reliance on fossil‑based materials.
