THE PASSAGE COLLECTION
New York, NY
Designed for Wolf Gordon, the Passage Collection is a series of wallcoverings inspired by the effects of weathering and the passage of time.

The source images for these patterns are collages of inspirational images from nature and signature images of our office’s work, such as details of stairs, shelves, and public spaces.
