Collaborating with leading British designers Tom Dixon, Faye Toogood and , alongside US-based and , Bill Amberg Print will release the finest leather hides to the market, printed with graphics custom-designed by each of the renowned creatives. The final product is designed to be equally suitable for commercial, hospitality, residential and marine projects. With over 30 years in the leather industry, Bill Amberg’s broad and in-depth knowledge of this material puts him in a unique position to oversee the creation of the world’s most coveted upholstery leathers. Working with only superior quality European bull hides, the specialist digital printing technology has been refined over the course of three years, to give a much finer dye penetration to the skin. The hides are then finished with a durable dressing that retains the grain and handle of the material. Combining the natural character of the leather, with a colourfast and robust printed design, the product has the utility that stretches beyond its traditional upholstery functions, to bespoke furniture and a wide range of interior and architectural uses. “The wonderful alchemy of some of the world’s most prestigious designers combined with a printed leather that for the first time brilliantly illustrates the natural characteristics of the material I love, is something I’m so excited to share”, says Bill. “The quality is something that should be seen and touched to be fully appreciated.”
