Similarly Klemens Schillinger’s Divina Hangers are intended to hold heavy items despite only being constructed from a loop of
the fabric clamped at the top by an aluminium bracket. “The idea came to me when we were sent the swatch book,” says Schillinger.
“The plastic wallets were really hard to open so I pulled them forcefully and realised that the fabric itself is incredibly strong.” Belgian duo Muller Van Severen and French designer Philippe Nigro used Divina to build rather than upholster, both creating daybeds from rolled and stacked sheets of fabric.
