Kvadrat Re-Wool 2 Fabric

Designed by Margrethe Odgaard, Re-wool 2 is a richly textured uphol­stery textile made with 45% recy­cled wool. Woven from post-indus­trial fibre scraps collected from Kvadrat’s own Wooltex mill, it exem­pli­fies a closed-loop approach to textile produc­tion — deliv­er­ing consis­tent quality while reduc­ing wool waste to near zero.

The updated palette intro­duces 14 new hues, expand­ing the orig­i­nal Re-wool collec­tion to a total of 25 color­ways. While the first palette drew from Odgaard’s Shades of Light — a hand-painted study of Scan­di­na­vian light tran­si­tions — Re-wool 2 explores bolder terrain. Odgaard discov­ered that the mélange warp could support more satu­rated tones, prompt­ing the addi­tion of vivid blues, rusty reds, vibrant greens, and deeper, grounding shades.

These new colors amplify the textile’s contrast and bring out the subtle irreg­u­lar­i­ties of the recy­cled wool, creat­ing a tactile, almost embroi­dered surface with a unique three-dimen­sional quality. Odgaard explains: ​“For Re-wool 2, I dared to cele­brate the unde­fined tones of recy­cled wool by combin­ing them with bolder colors… offer­ing slow colors with built-in longevity, as well as energy-shaping, cheeky colors.”

Elegant, resilient, and sustain­able, Re-wool 2 is ideal for both resi­den­tial and commer­cial inte­ri­ors — offer­ing a refined mate­r­ial story with endur­ing visual character.
