Designed with Alessandra Williams, Hanna is a quiet study in geometry and place, now back in stock. Here, the three places behind the print: the facades of Ostuni, the mosaic floors of Matera Cathedral and the marble inlays of Monopoli.

Kerrilyn Pamer founded CAP Beauty after a celiac diagnosis sent her digging into what she ate and what she put on her skin. Now in Silver Lake, she talks plants, gardening and summer food.

Ashley Olmstead runs Quail Store outside Philadelphia, a shop built to reject commodity and celebrate craft. She talks curation, paying attention, and the best gift she ever received: a pack of pens.

Claudia Williams has an aversion to anything new. From her 125-year-old Brooklyn apartment, she talks colonial furniture, her grandparents' collections and knowing when a renovation is finished.

Mari Giudicelli grew up in Rio de Janeiro and now lives in Brooklyn, among her ceramics, records, ocean paintings and vintage clothing. She talks antique shops, travel and what makes a home.

Ali LaBelle grew up in Orange County setting the table with her sister, building centerpieces from candles, pumpkins and whatever they could find. She talks collecting linens, paper menus and keeping it unprecious.

Alma began with katazome, the Japanese stencil-dyeing technique, and a grid-like print found in Andrew Tuer's 1893 book of Japanese stencil designs. The story behind the towel's geometric repeat.

Marianne pairs etched brown lines with a rust orange drawn from Japanese sarasa. Our first look at color theory follows orange through Greek myth, alchemy and saffron.

Sarasa began in Japan as an imitation of Indian calico, once a luxury cloth prized by samurai and used in the tea ceremony. We trace a print whose origins remain part mystery.

Behind the walnut and cream of our Karin print sits kasuri, Japan's take on ikat. We look at egasuri, or picture ikat, the intricate woven motifs that emerged by the 1800s.

Paisley is named after a Scottish town, but its teardrop motif traveled from Persia to the shawl weavers of Kashmir long before. The story behind our paisley table linens.

Karin's walnut and cream pattern echoes ikat, the resist-dyed weaving found from Indonesia to Guatemala. A look at a technique with no tidy lineage, and the print it shaped.

Our first toiletry bag, made with CAP Beauty, borrows from calico, a print traced to 11th-century India. We follow its path to Edo-era Japan, where it became known as wasarasa.

Charlotte is a study in stripes, in a hue with a long past: Verona green, Europe's earliest known textile dye, found in the frescoes of Pompeii and beneath Renaissance paintings.

Notes from Sicily and Istanbul, from a striped footstool at Palazzo Castelluccio to the marbled stone of Hagia Sophia, and the stripes behind the launch of our pool towels.

Discovered in 1922, the Bronze Age city of Mohenjo-daro had private bathrooms, 700 wells and a citywide drainage system. At its center sits the Great Bath, still something of a mystery.

In 1893 Andrew Tuer published a book of Japanese stencil designs that introduced katazome to European readers. How a chance find among its pages became our Ester print.

Agnes draws on maiolica, the tin-glazed tiles Italian artisans perfected in the 15th and 16th centuries. Tiles, like towels, are both useful and beautiful, which made them a natural reference.

Pauline Chardin is a creative director and photographer working across fashion, interiors and food. She talks one-of-a-kind finds, and building a modern house on stilts in rural France.

Asia Chmielewska is a photographer, collector and stylist who likes giving ready-made pieces a new use. She talks her audio system, her cat, and a collapsed shelving unit she turned into something new.

Felizia Berchtold is a designer working across spatial design, visual design and creative direction. She shows us around her home and how she works.
