FIVE YEARS ANNIVERSARY
Contemporary
Craftsmen of Transylvania
IN CELEBRATION OF OUR FIFTH ANNIVERSARY, WE RETURNED TO OUR ROOTS CREATING A COLLECTION INSPIRED BY OUR EVOCATIVE HOMELAND. ONCE AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY, FOR CENTURIES TRANSYLVANIA HAS BEEN A MELTING POT OF PEOPLES, CULTURES AND RELIGIONS, FROM SAXONS, HUNGARIANS AND ROMANIANS TO SZEKELY, ASHKENAZI JEWS, ARMENIANS AND GYPSIES.
Surrounded by mountains and forests, villagers were united in their communion with nature. Poor in resources, but rich in inspiration and ideas, traditional countryside homes were dressed with jubilantly embroidered textiles to soften wooden furniture, and trimmed tasselled lamps to brighten the dark winter nights.
"A tribute to our ancestors and to who we are today, TRANSYLVANIAN ROOTS pays homage to the history and heritage of our fantastic birthplace. I like to say that we are Contemporary Craftsmen and definitely we owe this to our ancestors and their passion for craftsmanship and enduring quality", says Stefan ORMENISAN, Founder and Creative Director.
OUR STORY
SURROUNDED BY A CULTURAL MELTING POT OF CRAFT AND TRADITIONS, OUR ARTISTIC IDENTITY IS ROOTED IN THE CAPTIVATING HOMELAND OF TRANSYLVANIA. EVOCATIVE AND INDIVIDUAL, OUR ECLECTIC HOME DECOR COLLECTIONS TAKE INSPIRATION FROM OUR REGION'S DIVERSE ETHNIC HERITAGE, RICH CULTURAL HISTORY AND AUTHENTIC WANDERER'S SPIRIT.
From the unseen and undiscovered to the instantly recognisable and iconic, we pay homage to art, architecture, artefacts, culture, rituals and people from all four corners of the globe. Created with appreciation for the history of art and design, our collections present a host of different styles, each with a strong aesthetic identity inspired by the marvellous creations of mankind. Led by founder Stefan ORMENISAN, our design team creates vintage, classical, traditional and contemporary looks, generating a unique bohemian lifestyle that encapsulates the spirit of wanderlust of our birthplace.
Our products are rich in detail with high quality finishing and unique embellishments. We design and produce premium home furnishings inspired by the traditions and craftsmanship of our ancestors. All our products are manufactured by using finest quality materials from the best makers around the globe. Natural linen from Belgium, the finest leather is sourced from the best tanners of Italy, cotton velvet is made in England and our wallpaper substrate is produced in Germany and Finland and printed in Transylvania.
We are not just purveyors of wallpaper or fabric. We are creators of moods, stories and lifestyles. A world of intriguing combinations and endless creativity, our luxury wallcoverings, fabrics, furniture and home accessories are timeless pieces that enrich lives with beauty and style.
