We designed Vessel for @manneristgoods to be about the everyday moments we rarely notice, soft landings, shared drinks, small acts of care. Pairing hand dyed, Pennsylvania regenerative wool with an earthenware vessel. The wool coasters protect your table while the versatile vessel can hold the coasters, keys, and life’s smalls.
Flax! Diving into the exciting world of Flax with @paflaxproject ! So many uses for this amazing plant. Make sure to follow along as they scale up flax production here in our backyard!
Creating a Stronger, More Sustainable Society:

This dynamic group will come together to discuss the many industrial uses of flax fiber, scaling production in the mid-Atlantic, and flax as an alternative to toxic building materials and textiles. There will be an array of samples from linseed oil to linen for participants to handle and learn about.
This is an exciting peek into the progress of the fiber flax industry in our region and future materials. We welcome interior designers, architects, textile industry professionals, artists, building contractors, sustainable developers, and community members passionate about real change towards a sustainable future.

An exploration around material impermanence. In a throwaway culture obsessed with speed and convenience, most products are not built to last, yet the materials we use are made to last forever. Fast furniture crowds landfills, outliving both its use and its relevance. This piece offers another path: a quiet resistance that embraces change, decay, and return. It unfolds across three defining moments in its life — its beginning, its use, and its end — each questioning how long we truly need an object and what happens when we are done with it. Come check it out if you’re in the neighborhood.
