HIGH SUNDERLAND COLLECTION
The KESTIN SS21 collection is inspired by the life, work and home of Bernat Klein. Bernat Klein (1922-2014) was a visionary textile designer, artist and colourist, who established his business in the Scottish Borders in the 1950s. Klein was a maverick, challenging the preconceptions of how to use colour and traditional Scottish textile design and his fabrics were chosen for collections by Dior, Chanel, Balenciaga and Sain Laurent. His two books, Eye for Colour , and Design Matters outline a vital and infectious passion, applying his ideas and aesthetic principals to all aspects of living.
Klein’s fabrics and paintings bear a strong relationship to the landscape surrounding his home, High Sunderland, in the Scottish Borders. High Sunderland was designed by Klein’s friend, the architect Peter Womersely, in 1956. A champion of modernist design, Klein also commissioned Womersely to design his studio in 1969.
