Ervin Latimer

Ervin Latimer is a fashion designer whose work is defined by clear, strong lines and
a fearless use of color. For Finarte, Latimer brings a structured softness to the
world of home interiors. His debut collection is an intersection of his ancestry and
his expertise in tailoring, moving the conversation from just floor coverings to pieces
of textile art. By deconstructing his fashion background, Latimer invites us to look
closer, at the weft, the graphic language, and the craft of softness found within
geometric and three dimensional lines lines.

"I was drawn to interpreting these works as ryijy-like wall hangings from the very beginning. Many of these pieces work just as naturally on a wall as on a floor — as emotional, connection-building focal points. This collection is my attempt to forge a new, contemporary expression of an AfroFinnish identity that does not define or constrain, but opens a conversation." -Ervin Latimer, designer
