Our lives are often bombarded with information and over-saturated with the bustle of daily life, yet we're constantly seeking for ways to disconnect. Our sister brand, Sömn Linen, will help you find the tranquillity and peacefulness that one seeks in modern lifestyles.

Our newest additions of Sage and Natural to our collection were inspired by the soft tones of raw, natural Vancouver landscape. Stripped down to the bare minimum, these colours will help you escape the every day and retreat to a calmer place.
 

Sage is our take on a subtle pastel green, designed to connect your home with nature. This tone historically communicated longevity and wisdom and is associated with rejuvenation. The soft greenish-grey shade easily pairs with more soothing colours (like muted blues or earthy browns). Sage is sure to bring a calm aura to any space it's in, and will help bring the outdoors indoors.

Natural celebrates our love of linen by introducing a natural undyed version of our linen bedding. The muted and reduced quality of this linen makes it pair well with shades of white or off-white tones. This “colour” will offer the greatest longevity and has a beautiful organic look.

Not only will the new colours bring a sense of freshness into your home, but the linen material also has a multitude of benefits. Most of the benefits stem from the fact that linen is a natural fiber that grows without the need for any herbicides or pesticides. This makes it more environmentally friendly and a renewable resource. Linen will also naturally regulate your body temperature and wick away moisture. Linen has a neutral pH balance and as a result is hypoallergenic and bacteria resistant. All of these qualities mean linen is one of the longest lasting natural fibers in the world.

Have you ever wondered about the secrets to a beautiful bedroom?

We are in love with our new items from Linge Particulier featuring calming whites, stripes and soft colors.

Made from flax fibers, linen has been grown for thousands of years and is one of the world's oldest fabrics. In the language of flowers, the word 'flax' means 'benefactor.

Here are 10 reasons to love linen:

1. Linen has high air permeability and heat conductivity properties – that means, it is a breathable fabric – makes you warm in the winter and keeps cool in the summer.

2. Linen can absorb as much as 20% of its weight in moisture before feeling wet… thus, always having a pleasant, fresh, cool feeling when touched or slept on.

3. Linen sheets have a distinct, distinguished texture and delightful softness to them… in fact, becoming even softer and shinier with each washing.

4. It is anti-static and can even help soften and preserve the skin due to its natural pH balance.

5. A linen sheet actually repels dirt.

6. Linen bedding is twice as durable as cotton bedding and can last decades. Definitely worth the investment!

7. It is environmentally friendly – all the flax used to make linen is used in other ways – the seeds are pressed to make linseed oil which is used in floor coverings, such as linoleum, and paint. Linen is a renewable resource and it needs no irrigation. Linen is also fully biodegradable.

8. Linen fabric has a light massaging effect because of the microscopic breaks throughout the fabric.

9. To own bed sheets of pure linen is certainly a status symbol… a choice and reflection of a more prestigious lifestyle (and always has been)

10. They simply look beautiful

If you dream of sleeping soundly on heavenly soft sheets that are all-natural, breathable, adjust to your body temperature, and are environmentally friendly- You will love linen!
