Designs of the Time, by Yvan Puylaert in Belgium, is the epitome in relaxed sophistication. Depth of colour and texture define a collection that is imbued with a spirit of adventure. Inspired by indigenous communities from around the world, designs are exotic yet contemporary.

On the ottoman is the splendidly textured 'Acaraho'.

This is what I really love, so we make no concessions. We very deliberately choose top quality materials that we like ourselves and from these we try to assemble a fascinating, personal and unique collection. This is not just my way of working, it’s my way of living.



On the seat pads is a textural linen with a baked-on chalk finish. Designs of the Time believe that fibres such as linen and chalk help one to connect with the natural world.



These textiles may appear casual yet a second glance proves that they are fabrics born from sophisticated and meticulous design practices. The result is confident, unique and very easy-to-use and live with designs. Yvan Puylaert and his team are steadfast in their pursuit of quality.


Designs of the Time embrace imperfection, this family owned business adores a textured and untreated aesthetic. They have a deep love for craftsmanship and authenticity.
