Up Close and Personal With Linen Specialists Rise And Fall

There is nothing better than sinking into a comfy bed and feeling the stress of the day fade away. Rise and Fall is all about quality linen that is good for the body and the environment. We chatted to Marianna Furman from Klooftique about how the brand continues to inspire and we also find out all about her favourite things and latest inspirational finds.

What’s your go-to classic colour choice?

“Ooohh , you can’t limit me to one … I would have to say white , charcoal and black… I guess any shade of charcoal / grey.”

Is there a hotel, interior or building that most inspires your work?

“Two hotels spring to mind immediately which I absolutely love and have stayed at. The Side Hotel in Hamburg and The Straf Hotel on Via San Rafaelle in Milano. Like most of the world I really draw inspiration from the cobbled streets, windy roads and fabulous facades found all over Italy. I’m definitely a sucker for Renaissance Italy.”

A place you love to visit?

“Italy , always.”

Where do you go to spot new styles?

“We don’t really follow trend much in store. We tend to just go with what we love. But design and style wise, we do love the influence the Nordic countries have on design and trends ( think mid-century in its true sense) and I have to say Amsterdam is definitely a go to… we love small boutique stores which are intimate, offering local talent and design.”

Do you have a favourite restaurant?

“A few yes, one is a bit far off from home but again a definite if you ever visit Sardegna a wonderful agritourismo called La Sasima in Arzachena. Locally La Frasca and Osteria Tarantino.”

Who or what is your biggest design influence?

“Definitely the mid-century greats … Florence Knoll , Eileen Grey , Charles and Ray Eames . Timeless design.”

What is your ultimate pleasure?

“I have always been obsessed with fabulous bed linen and who doesn’t love bedtime! There is nothing better than dropping into a bed which has fabulous bed linen, crisp, fresh and oh so comfortable. After extensive research to try and find the best bedding possible to sleep under (and yes I do love Frette) it was a no brainier when I came across Rise and Fall. The company ticked all the boxes from the 400 thread count offered, the socio-economic philosophy and true social conscience to the fact that this product is SOOOO good to sleep on because it is completely chemical free and is ethically manufactured. Back to Frette… our factory produces for Frette so this marriage was one made in sheet heaven. Rise and Fall, the brand offers more than beautiful bed linen, it offers bed linen with a clear conscience.”
