En 2010, l’artiste Klaus Haapaniemi et la directrice artistique et designer Mia Wallenius établissent un studio de design à Londres. Pour leur première collaboration, ils signent une gamme unique de textiles luxueux, alliant techniques traditionnelles de tissage et imprimés modernes et sophistiqués. Influencée par la nature, la fantaisie des arts décoratifs traditionnels et le folklore finlandais, la collection compte des coussins, des plaids et des châles et des écharpes en soie.
