Stoff Studios

Based in London, UK

Stoff Studios is a partnership founded in 2015 between Carys Briggs, a textile printer who trained at both the Royal College of Art and Central St Martins and Andrew Mason, a designer and maker of furniture, who studied Sculpture at Camberwell College.

Working from their studio spaces in South East London, traditional methods are used to create refined, intimate collections of textiles and furniture. With a humble approach to their practice, drawing inspiration from their materials: the joy of dyes applied to fabric or the clarity brought about by a well placed joint. Often concentrating on either a single piece or a small batch of works to produce objects with a tactile nature, designed to work together in the home to create plains of colour and texture.

Their unique fabric pieces are inspired by gestural mark making and mono printing techniques and the soft lines are reflected in the fluid, sculptural forms of their furniture. Stoff pieces are made to be loved and touched and improve the more they are used.

'We aim to produce truly collaborative collections, utilising our two fields of knowledge to create a more studied, detailed response to our initial inspirations, taking account of how our finished pieces, and the materials they are made from, exist within a wider context'.
