Atelier Pfister Collection 2013
The Atelier Pfister collection is designed exclusively by renowned and up-and-coming Swiss designers and is curated by internationally well-known Swiss designer Alfredo Häberli. Annette Douglas is since 2010 a designer of the Atelier Pfister collection. The beauty of high-quality materials, with the sophistication of design, for a high quality of living, is Annette Douglas‘s statement for the Atelier Pfister collection.
Annette Douglas develops her ideas by using paper or fabric models. With needle and thread, with brush and paint, with creases and wrinkles. The models serve as inspiration for industrial implementation.
Like the collection of 2011, the 2013 edition is characterized by a refined and modern, simple and clear design language. The fabrics are made of high-quality materials, with a nice feel, of natural fibers such as cotton or wool, and a majority of the fabrics are produced in Switzerland.
The names of the designs refer to localities in the residential cantons of each designer, which also ensure a Swiss identity. Annette Douglas‘s fabrics in the collection 2013 are named «Fischenthal», «Blüemlisalp», «Bauma» and «Seen».
