Woven Image has released a pair of all new coverings that channel the natural landscapes into striking designer finishes – Terrain and Orbit.
Go into any trendy cafe today and chances are you’ll see some variation on the recycled or flax finish aesthetic. Incredibly popular and perfect for contemporary hospitality projects, the recycled look is fast becoming the cafe design trend of 2017. It’s with this trend in aesthetics in mind that Woven Image has released Terrain, their all-new wall-covering material which hits the market alongside its screen-printed sibling Orbit.
This natural, organic looking covering recalls the aesthetics of the earth, but maintains a sensible and contemporary designer edge. Made from equal parts flax and polypropylene Terrain is supplied to market as a flat, semi ridged panel 2.5mm thick, in dimensions of 2800mm high by 1210mm wide to allow for ease of wall application installation.
Terrain comes in two neutral colours, beige and charcoal, and features a cream flax colour flecked throughout the base, creating a beautiful natural speckle, in a very on point ‘recycled’ style look – a feature increasingly popular in contemporary finishes. To co-ordinate with this plain texture is printed partner finish Orbit – a screen-printed option. Orbit is printed onto the beige base using waterbased, custom coloured pigment inks.
The design features a 3mm thick keyline of a circle, 10cm in diameter. The single colour large-scale motif is repeated side by side across the panel in a straight repeat creating a sophisticated pattern inspired by traditional wall hangings. Orbit is available in three matte colourways, trend driven blossom pink, and neutrals dark grey and white.
Both Terrain and Orbit have low a volatile organic compound emission rate, notably below the limit for both the Green Building Council of Australia and Green Tag. For architects and designers, this means they can help contribute towards a green building rating scheme in the planning process.

In this candid interview, the culinary mastermind behind Singapore’s Nouri and Appetite talks about food as an act of human connection that transcends borders and accolades, the crucial role of technology in preserving its unifying power, and finding a kindred spirit in Gaggenau’s reverence for tradition and relentless pursuit of innovation.
Within the intimate confines of compact living, where space is at a premium, efficiency is critical and dining out often trumps home cooking, Gaggenau’s 400 Series Culinary Drawer proves that limited space can, in fact, unlock unlimited culinary possibilities.
Gaggenau’s understated appliance fuses a carefully calibrated aesthetic of deliberate subtraction with an intuitive dynamism of culinary fluidity, unveiling a delightfully unrestricted spectrum of high-performing creativity.
In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
Striking a harmonious chord amidst the urban rhythm of Adelaide’s Festival Plaza, Flinders University’s new campus integrates meticulously crafted soundscapes that soothe the buzz of modern pedagogy, settling into the building’s multifaceted context.
