The FRI series are very much inspired by the Norwegian tradition of smaller rectangular table cloths called 'løpere'. You'll find variations of these textiles in nearly every mountain cabin all over Norway. In this new interpretation, the typical repetitive rhythm of color is somewhat dissolved and the colors shift in a randomized, soft and meandering zigzag.
The name FRI refers to free time—time to relax and let go of expectations and stress.
