Ulf Moritz (Amsterdam, Netherlands)
‘Ulf Moritz: Fascination textile’

2007
Book

Ulf Moritz has had a major impact on the world of design. His acclaimed portfolio of work includes numerous fabrics, carpets and wallpapers, as well as interior and architectural projects. In his choice of materials and his application of new concepts, Moritz has consistently introduced refreshing new designs in a style all his own. His clients include renowned international companies such as M.I.D., Intair, Interlübke, Felice Rossi, Oliver Treutlein and Danskina. Since 1986 he has designed a textile collection under his own name for the German Sahco Hesslein. Known for their colours, textures, light and sense of motion, Moritz’s designs often reference both the Bauhaus and the 1960s as recurring influences. They frequently feature highly refined and innovative combinations of threads and fibres, often highlighting previously hidden qualities of a particular material.

The book ‘Ulf Moritz: Fascination Textile’ documents the development of Moritz’s rich collection of fabric designs from 1992 to 2007 with beautiful photographs by Rudolf Schmutz. To reflect the high quality of both Moritz’s designs and Schmutz’s photography, we used different types of paper for full-colour printing. To reinforce the impact of the designs shown on various pages, for example, we used Hello Silk 130 GSM paper with an extra mother-of-pearl transparent lac. To distinguish a particular section of the book from the rest, we used Lessebo Design Smooth 130 GSM paper. Various other pages spread throughout the book are printed in either black and white or full colour on Glama Translucent 100 GSM paper. The 184-page book is bound in an uncoated black hardcover with a clean text image embossed in a reflecting iridescent film. A transparent jacket, printed in full colour, enters into play with the embossed film on the hardcover.
