Madison One | William Reue

Madison One fabric collection designed by William Reue for FreeSpirit Fabrics is William Reue’s inaugural fabric collection for FreeSpirit. The designs for the collection were inspired by his paintings of an elegantly slender residential tower visible from his architecture studio overlooking Madison Square Park in New York City. Bold, rich, and saturated with color, the designs seek to capture the ineffable complexity of light’s interaction with facets of the building’s geometry at different times of day. The collection was an experiment that explored the collisions between nature and the built world. Its intention was to describe visually what could not be expressed in words.
