A stairway to heaven, the 18th century Jantar Mantar observatory in Jaipur inspired this architectural pattern woven from alpaca merino wool and contrasting textures of felted wools and silk.
A celebration of light and shadow, this collection is a meditation on the transformative qualities of light, season, and moment, each piece reflecting on the shifting nature of perspective and perception.
The Atelier collection is a series of limited-edition pieces created and designed by Sylvie Johnson and the Merida team.
In Perception of Light, Sylvie Johnson reflects on her lifelong fascination with light and shadow—not just as visual phenomena, but as forces that shape perception, emotion, and self-understanding. Each piece in the series is both personal and contemplative, capturing how light transforms a textile across time: from morning to night, season to season, moment to moment. Created in close collaboration with Merida Studio, the limited-edition works trace Johnson’s evolving relationship with color and ma—a meditation on the quiet intervals between what is seen and what is felt.
