A Vibrant Statement in Modern Textile Design
In a stunning second collaboration, Designtex, the renowned American textile manufacturer, teams up once again with Kapitza, the London-based design studio celebrated for its mastery of geometric artistry. The result is Mosaic, a dynamic textile collection that transforms interiors with bold geometric patterns, rich color palettes, and unparalleled versatility.
Crafted to resemble the intricate beauty of mosaic tiles, the Mosaic fabric collection is digitally printed on high-performance polyurethane-based material. This collection isn’t just about looks — it brings durability, texture, and design freedom to upholstery for furniture like chairs, sofas, and soft furnishings.
Behind the Collaboration: Designtex and Kapitza
Designtex, a leading innovator in textile solutions, has built a reputation for integrating art, technology, and sustainability. The company has collaborated with major artists, architects, and cultural institutions — including Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation and Cooper Hewitt Smithsonian Design Museum.
Kapitza, founded by sisters Nicole and Petra Kapitza, is internationally known for its vibrant, abstract visual language rooted in mathematical patterns and color theory.
Mosaic is the second textile project between Designtex and Kapitza, following the success of CrissCross, their 2018 launch that featured interwoven linear compositions.
Exploring Mosaic: The Art of Maximalism in Fabric
Pattern and Purpose
The Mosaic textile design is inspired by traditional mosaic tiles, reimagined through a modern, maximalist lens. Large-scale geometric motifs create visual rhythm and depth, making the fabric ideal for statement pieces in commercial, residential, or hospitality interiors.
“We hope our textiles spark inspiration — becoming the foundation from which entire color stories unfold,” shares Kapitza.
The collection showcases three unique patterns, each with their own expressive identity. These motifs aren’t merely decorative; they’re designed to stimulate creativity and cohesion in interior design projects.
Color That Transforms Spaces
Five Distinct Colorways with Emotional Impact
Mosaic is available in five curated color palettes that balance muted undertones with vibrant accents. The combination allows for seamless integration across a variety of design themes — from minimalist to eclectic.
These palettes are intentionally designed to offer:
- Contrast and harmony
- Layering possibilities for wall panels, cushions, or large furniture
- Unifying elements across different design zones
Designers can use Mosaic to anchor a space or add expressive pops of color, achieving a look that feels both curated and personal.
Premium Material and Performance
High-Durability Textile Made for Modern Living
The Mosaic fabric is digitally printed on a base made from 100 percent polycarbonate-based polyurethane, offering:
- Exceptional durability
- High resistance to wear and tear

Whether used in office lounges, hotel lobbies, or creative studios, Mosaic delivers both aesthetic brilliance and functional resilience.

Real-World Applications
Mosaic’s unique appeal lies in its versatility. Interior designers and architects have already started incorporating it into:
- Lounge seating

- Acoustic panels
- Collaborative workspaces
Its vibrant yet refined character makes Mosaic a standout choice for brands and clients that want to communicate creativity, identity, and warmth through textiles. 
The Design Philosophy: More Than Fabric
Kapitza describes geometry as the “starting point for all our work.” The studio views patterns not just as surface decoration but as vehicles for emotion and structure. By merging form with function, Mosaic becomes more than just a textile — it becomes a design narrative.
“Designed to be versatile, these colors invite designers to echo them across surfaces, creating spaces that feel cohesive, expressive, and full of character,” says Kapitza.
This emotional layer elevates Mosaic from fabric to foundational storytelling tool in interior architecture.
Industry Recognition & Cultural Impact
As the interior design world embraces bold patterns and personalized spaces, Mosaic enters the scene at the perfect time. Publications such as Interior Design Magazine, Architectural Digest, and Metropolis have noted the rise of maximalist textiles that serve as both function and art.
The collaboration also aligns with movements in sustainable design and intentional aesthetics, promoted by organizations like:
- International Interior Design Association (IIDA)
- American Society of Interior Designers (ASID)
- The British Textile Biennial.
