WorldWeave is the vision between designer Piero Gesualdi and textile designer Sara Thorn. It draws on their combined wealth of experience and passion for creativity in design and authentic craftsmanship.
Piero’s architectural approaches to space and form are complimented by Thorn’s decorative approach to pattern, colour and textile techniques.
WorldWeave signature floor dressing collections are designed in Melbourne and woven in India. Utilising a combination of modern technologies and artisan hand skills, WorldWeave takes its inspiration from ancient sensibilities and techniques. It exaggerates, collages and re invents new ways of working with traditional and modern skills.
At WorldWeave it is our priority to create products in natural fibers and made with hand skills which do not pollute or treat people or the environment badly. We work with makers and businesses who operate transparently and pay fair wages and offer good working conditions. We use only natural and non toxic dyes and non polluting techniques. We value the earth and its resources and hope that by working with traditional artisan skills in natural, sustainable fibers that we are assisting to keep these traditions alive and thriving, creating employment for artisans and maintaining traditions in the modern world.
