Designs Of The Time is a Belgian company founded in 1998 by the Puylaert family. In their interior textiles, they embrace a sense of imperfection that complements their love for natural materials and casual, untreated looks. The work of this family revolves around a deep love for craftsmanship, authenticity and thoughtful creative designs. This, along with their gentle character, results in interior textile collections of discrete luxury that breathe a troop of warm feelings into every home.

Azimuth by Designs of the Time marks the space between where we stand and what we look toward, inviting you to shape your own direction through the materials around us. Each fabric carries a story and emotion, where texture, weight, and tactility reveal the character of traditional materials. Subtle irregularities reflect authentic craftsmanship—signatures of the maker’s patient hand. The colours move from earth to horizon: desert sand, clay whites, saffron and spiced ochre, deepening into burgundy and olive, with rust, indigo, earth, and dark brown forming rich, grounding tones that shift with light and age beautifully.
