Which services do you offer?

We offer design services for hometextile companies. Our work is mostly splitted into two parts, we mainly create pattern designs for printed hometextile products such as bedding, cushions, curtains and wallpaper, we showcase them online, physically at tradeshows and in customer appointments. The second part is our consulting activity.

We help companies to develop successful collections with the right colors that are well-suited to their target audience. We create color concepts, give advice on solid colors for NOS (Never-out-of-stock) items and teaching programs with our print and pattern academy.

Do you sell bedding sets and wallpaper?

No, we are no merchandiser, manufacturer or retailer of textiles or wallpaper. We create and sell designs for such products to B2B customers.

Companies look for new designs and styles for their products, we create it.

Are the designs we buy exclusive for us and usable worldwide?

Yes. We work only on an exclusive basis. All our designs are sold only once and are immediately removed from our collection after purchase, making them unavailable to other interested parties. They’re usable worldwide. 

Are all your designs only bedding designs?

No, they’re not. In the end customers decide which product they want to bring to life with our design. We offer various repeat sizes in our collection, usable for wallpaper, curtains, beddings, cushions, fabrics etc. Many of our designs can be adapted to your custom needs. Don´t worry, this is our daily business. We make all our designs producible, we deliver all our designs ready for production including latest pantone colors for safe color communication. In our collection we always show a bedding simulation, just to show how the repeat looks when repeated. The bedding makes sense to show a bigger area filled with the pattern. Don´t be confused, all kinds of products can be assembled from the printed fabric with our designs.

With which color specification system do you work?

We work with the latest pantone colors. These are known as an international standard in the textile industry.

Do you deliver designs in any size and tiff format and pantone specifications? / What are your design specifications and how you deliver the designs?

We deliver your purchased designs always ready for production. This means files include repeat size, separated colors and files are optimized for rotary screen printing with the help of the latest available CAD technologies and with maximum 8-12 colors. All our designs which are created for screen printing are delivered with pantone colors. If you purchased a digital print, we can arrange pantones for your production to get an idea of the color mood that should be targeted.

Can I have a look at your collection online?

Yes! Please send a request to get access to our online showroom. Please understand that we can only accept requests with some info about the company you work for and please let us know what you’re planning and we will arrange a zoom call to discuss the opportunities.

Are your designs contemporary?

Yes we offer contemporary designs and classics/evergreens. The base for our work is extensive market research and trend analysis. Combined with our designers' experience we are able to do trend forecasting and to create collections that match the spirit of time.

 I need a simulation of the design for my product, can you create it for us?

We offer a simple simulation of our designs for nearly every product, but this may not exactly correspond to the dimensions of your product.

We can hand out a flat overview of how your product should be cut out of the fabric. Some of our customers use this overview for their internal work process.


When it comes to product images for packaging and commercial use, we are always able to create such images with a very professional look, but this is way more extensive, so please contact us with your needs and we will make an offer. This is often more convenient than booking a photo studio, so it’s worth to consider.

Do you create designs or whole collections based on briefings and moodboards?

Yes, please reach out with your first ideas and let´s discuss the opportunities.

How long do you need to create new custom designs and collections based on our briefing?

Honestly, the more time you give us, the better we can work on your project. When we have a gap in our schedule, we can realize some projects really quickly but in general if projects need to be realized on a short term we advise to choose designs from our collection. Changes of color or arrangement are made quite quick. But if you’re planning a whole collection with us, including exclusive designs, no other customer has ever seen before, please contact us as soon as possible. Please also calculate revisions and the time we need to work on a concept. There is much more to do than creating the designs, and creating itself takes its time. 

We only create exclusive designs, we draw and paint flowers, tendrils, leaves etc. all by ourselves, give us the time to give the designs some love ;-)

Summing up, for a whole exclusive, concepted collection we need a minimum of four weeks. Small collections and projects that need less exclusitivy can be realised with the help of our showroom within one to two weeks.

We start from scratch with pens, we draw and paint flowers, tendrils, leaves etc. all by ourselves. Give us the time to give the designs some love ;-)

Summed up: for a whole exclusive, concepted collection we need a minimum of four weeks. Small collections and projects that need less exclusivity can be realized with the help of our showroom within one to two weeks. It all depends ;-)

I am new to the hometextile industry and just launching a new brand or product, can you help me with your expertise?

Of course, you are at the right place, reach out to arrange a zoom call to professionally discuss the opportunities.

 Do you offer internships?

When we moved in 2019 we stopped offering internships, just because we moved with the studio into the middle of nowhere. So it’s not practicable for young students. But! Pia loves to pass her knowledge on and encourage young creatives so she founded the Print and Pattern Academy for young textile designers and those who want to become one. With special offers for students, so don’t hesitate to contact her!

Do you work with freelancers?

Yes! We are always looking for new styles to serve our beloved customers. BUT! It really needs to make sense for both of us. Send us your portfolio with your best designs. After examining it we can decide if we match and whether we will add and  launch your designs for sale. Please understand that it depends on various reasons:

  • We have very high standards for our design files, you need to deliver all your designs according to our standards.
  • We just take designs which are perfectly prepared for screenprinting. Our goal is a happy customer, there is nothing more disappointing when a design is not producable. Always keep that in mind.
  • Your designs should be a reasonable addition to our existing collection. We do not need copies of our designs or flat stripe design no. 748, this does not mean that everything needs to be exaggerated fancy. We expect your hand and style but in a consistent way. Your designs should still be commercial and bring our customers best sales. 

If you think your designs would perfectly fit in our collection, do not hesitate to send your portfolio to Pia, pia@pinoo.de, she will come back to you with her review asap.
