The Art of Weaving

Maria Sigma is an award-winning Greek textiles designer and weaver specialising in ethical hand-woven textiles for interiors. Maria’s work - inspired by a traditional Greek Cycladic crocheted lace pattern - celebrates 'zero waste' design and a slow-making ethic, combining a contemporary approach of traditional weaving techniques with a focus on raw natural materials and texture. Maria has collaborated with a long list of exceptional interior designers, architects, galleries, fashion and furniture brands, including Susie Atkinson, Hauser & Wirth, Soho House, The New Craftsman, Anthropologie and Toast. She also teaches regular ‘weaving from waste’ workshops across London and has authored a book on the subject entitled, Weaving: the Art of Sustainable Textile Creation.
