Houria Tazi | Embroidery Atelier

A centuries-old company specializing in superior quality fabrics, HOSOO attracts a high-end clientele of leading interior and fashion designers. But this is recently; before, the customers were aristocrats, shoguns and none other than the Japanese imperial family. The true preciousness of HOSOO fabrics is difficult to capture in photographs, but guarantees a wonderful surprise in person - when you notice their astonishing three-dimensionality and the way they change as light falls.

At the age of 40, Davide Furno discovered an extravagant and irresistible collection at the Fruit Museum in Turin, created using the lost wax technique with (currently illegal) 19th century materials, such as Smyrna wax, cachalot fat and lead paint. Attempting to recreate these small wax sculptures, and this forgotten technique, became his vocation. Davide's most popular creations are individual fruits placed on elegant turned wooden pedestals, equipped with a handwritten label and packaging inspired by 19th century apothecaries.

A lifelong observer of architecture, London-based Vicki Ambery-Smith transforms the built environment into delicate, wearable forms. From Oxford's spires to the sweeping lines of Zaha Hadid, her miniature structures distil centuries of design into silver and gold. Drawing on sources from ancient Greece to American modernism, each piece reflects personal fascination or private commission.

Leading litigator-turned florist Lil Caldwell - founder of London's most sought after floral design studio, Grandirosa - spent 10 years working 70-hour weeks in the City before a course in floristry changed the course of her career. Famed for their exquisite exploding roses, Grandirosa have decorated many of London's most notable events, while Lil works hands-on, crafting flowers, in particular roses, into visual and sculptural works of art.

Founded in 1981 in Rabat, this embroidery workshop began as the creative outlet of a visionary woman, Houria Tazi, ahead of her time and unprejudiced by the norms of her context. Today, the workshop is run with even greater success by her daughter Kenza Echouafni, who has made the workplace an oasis of peace and a refuge for many local women.

From the moment a pre-teen Kate Malone MBE set eyes on a ceramics studio, she was hooked. In the decades since, Kare has gone on to become one of Britain's most celebrated ceramicists, her influence and contribution going far beyond commercial ceramics. Along with her own studio practice, Kate has pushed the boundaries of clay and works on large-scale projects that explore how the material can serve the community.

In an area rich in history and folklore, Doriana Usai is the first woman in a family of turners who have been passing on the craft for generations. Her creations have the freedom of a technique learnt as a child, familiarising herself with the material with playfulness, but with constant and profound references to the tradition from which she comes.

Denim: a universally beloved, versatile material that tells a thousand stories and only becomes richer with time. From its humble origins in 17th century France - from workwear to couture, and now, Cabana covers - it's fair to say denim has come a long way. Its enduring popularity is testament to the craftspeople still weaving and dyeing these threads today, including world-leaders Kuruki, whose fine Japanese denims will soon grace the covers of Cabana Magazine Issue 23, in partnership with LVMH Métiers D'Art.

Born in Mallorca - where she currently works surrounded by the raw beauty of the southern countryside of the island - Adriana Meunié fabricates her works in natural fibres, such as wool, reed and esparto grass, using traditional techniques of loom weaving and canvas sewing. Her handmade pieces tell the story of the land and its ancient jobs, like shepherding and agriculture.

At some point, in beautiful city flats or imposing country villas, curious sculptures made of paper began to appear, placed next to antiques and other tasteful objects. These are the highly original creations of Anna Bonino, made from books that take on hypnotic shapes but remain readable, because no page is cut out.

Rebekah Miles works from a studio on her family’s avocado ranch where the mountains meet the sea in Carpinteria, California. Hailing from a creative family, Rebekah’s inspiration comes from the natural world around her, be it a book cover her 8-year-old daughter has brought home (Nancy Drew), or the passion fruit flowers that emerge come Springtime. Everything is seen through her unique prism and translated tenderly, by hand, onto clay vessels, platters, mugs, plates and even lamp bases.

Artist, sculptor and basket maker, Jonathan Kline creates works using splint basketry, crafted from the native Black Ash trees of Central New York, as the Indigenous Peoples have done for centuries.
