In 1997 architect Erik Ole Jørgensen created Tundra and Flora. The combination of mélange colours and weaving techniques peculiar to these two upholstery fabrics makes them quite unique, unlike any others on the market. The collections were revised in 2000, and as a result, Tundra and Flora are now available in nearly twice as many colourways as in the original collection.
