The Aristidia Fabric

The Aristidia print features motifs reminiscent of marine life like starfish and seaweed. It is one of Josef Frank’s earliest print patterns, created in the 1920s for his own company Haus & Garten in Vienna.

About the print

The inspiration for the Aristidia print is said to come from the town of Falsterbo on the Swedish south coast. A seaside resort where Josef Frank often spent summers with his wife, Anna Frank.
