Tulu Textiles
Tulu Textiles is the work of Elizabeth Hewitt, who lives and works in Istanbul, Turkey. Elizabeth is a collector of people and a natural born storyteller, and her fabrics are visual versions of stories told over one or ten cocktails. Each fabric is named after a real person -a friend, an inspiration—in Elizabeth’s wide and international circle, each fabric it’s own character.Tulu’s unique combination of scale, pattern, and color make the designs bold and beautiful or sophisticated and unassuming, as if they are telling us their story in their own language. With nods to antique textiles from many place and techniques, Elizabeth re-interprets constantly, moving, for example, from an original antique woven textile to a block-printed version that is entirely her own.
