Overview

Fabrics and Textiles

Designed by
Doshi Levien

Maya is a rhythmic, airy curtain textile designed by Doshi Levien, offering an open structure and a light, matte expression. Despite its delicate look, it is extremely robust. Constructed with a leno weave, Maya creates a beautiful play of light and shadow, as conditions change throughout the day.

The design is inspired by Indian saris, which combine different transparencies to consistently reveal subtle nuances. Maya, meaning ‘illusion’ in Hindi, features an open grid balanced with narrow densely woven bands. This design creates the illusion of a striped pattern, which runs from floor to ceiling.
