A Gentle Place
Duvaltex is proud to unveil A Gentle Place Collection, a bold yet intimate exploration of comfort, tactility, and responsible design. This collection marks a new chapter in our sustainable textile innovation under the Clean Impact Textiles® brand, introducing two unique styles: Nest and Cocoon.
Born from years of research, A Gentle Place redefines softness through a biodegradable*, post-consumer recycled polyester. These two styles challenge expectations, marrying a gentle boucle yarn with enduring performance, and responding to a growing need for sensory well-being in interior spaces.
A Tactile Invitation to Pause
A Gentle Place collection is crafted to resonate both visually and emotionally. It celebrates the tactile dimension of textiles, inviting users to slow down and experience a sense of familiarity and ease. Soft to the touch and calming to the eye, Nest and Cocoon bring human connection back into the built environment.
The color palettes are grounded in earthy, luminous tones—neutral yet rich, balancing natural depth with subtle elegance. These textiles don’t just furnish a room—they shape how a space feels and how people feel within it.
A Symphony of Softness
Cocoon surrounds with serenity. Its texture is luxuriously soft, catching the light with a subtle shimmer that brings depth to every surface. Designed with a curated palette of gentle neutrals—pale yellows, cloudy greys, and warm creams—Cocoon offers harmony and ease. Unexpected accents such as electric blue, heathered lilac, and rich tobacco tones create visual rhythm while staying rooted in understated elegance.
Light animates Cocoon’s surface, highlighting its refined tactility. With names like Madder and Embergray, each hue whispers sophistication. Cocoon brings warmth and tranquility to any space, from collaborative offices to serene residential settings.
A Landscape You Can Touch
Nest evokes the rugged elegance of northern landscapes—coastal cliffs, misted stone, and dark skies. With a complex two-tone surface, Nest captures the interplay of light and shadow found in nature. Its organic texture resembles slate darkened by rain, blending muted greys and deep charcoals with a signature black that hints at plum undertones.
Nest’s tactile richness invites the hand and the eye. The fabric softens hard lines, grounding spaces with a sense of quiet resilience. It is ideal for both statement pieces and subtle details, bringing a sensory depth to furniture and interiors alike.
Nest and Cocoon reflect Duvaltex’s ongoing commitment to creating textiles that are not only beautiful but also meaningful. Both styles are crafted from biodegradable* polyester made with 100% post-consumer recycled content, supporting a circular approach to design and minimizing environmental impact.
The Gentle Place Collection aligns with our vision to rethink how textiles are made, used, and experienced—enhancing well-being while caring for the planet.
