Description: Aube 281 reveals a succession of daybreaks and folds in time.

An immense palette of colours, depicting shimmering shifts of light, drawn from a catalogue of textiles that have been patiently collected, collated and coordinated.

These myriad textiles forge countless connections between their shades and sheens as well as their weave, their weight, their finesse, their drape: their quality.

Vibrations ranging from the daintiest to the deepest resonate as a singular textile score.
