Artist wool blankets made from pure New Zealand wool, created with contemporary artists and designers

The ZigZagZurich Artist Wool Blanket Collection 2026 brings together fifteen new designs, each with its own distinctive visual language. Across the collection, bold geometry meets expressive figures, graphic patterns sit beside fluid abstractions and vibrant colour moves into quieter, more contemplative moods. Each blanket begins as an artwork and is translated into a woven textile made for everyday living. Crafted from 100% OEKO-TEX® certified pure New Zealand wool, the blankets combine natural warmth, softness and lasting comfort with a strong artistic presence. Generously sized at 140 x 200 cm, they are designed for the sofa, bed or simply for wrapping yourself in art.

ZigZagZurich Artist Wool Blanket Collection 2026

A New Canvas for Art, Colour and Expression

This collection celebrates the idea that a wool blanket can be much more than a functional object. It can become a canvas, a companion and a piece of art that lives inside the home. The fifteen designs bring together a wide range of creative voices, from graphic designers and textile specialists to illustrators, photographers, interior designers and visual artists. Some works are bold and energetic, using repetition, contrast and vivid colour to create immediate visual impact. Others are softer, more reflective or narrative, inviting a slower and more emotional reading. Together, they show how contemporary art can be transformed through wool into something tactile, warm and deeply personal.

Fifteen artist wool blankets that bring creativity, warmth and visual character into the home

From Original Artwork to Woven Textile Object

The strength of the collection lies in the translation from image to textile. Every design carries the spirit of the original artwork, but the woven surface gives it a new physical presence. Houndstooth becomes pop art, geometric structures gain softness, figures become intimate and expressive, and abstract compositions take on the warmth of wool. Designs such as “Houndstooth 2”, “Radial”, “Hug Me”, “A Mano”, “Townscape 1”, “Darn Yarn”, “Vapor”, “Lady”, “The Sound of Waves”, “Donkey”, “Blue Vision” and “Loops” each approach the blanket in a different way. Some explore colour and repetition, others memory, self-care, nature, architecture, imperfection or shared human experience. The result is a collection that feels varied, artistic and emotionally rich while remaining connected by material quality and purpose.

FROM THIS ARTIST / ZZ RECOMMENDATIONS

The 2026 Artist Wool Blanket Collection Brings Contemporary Art into Everyday Living

The ZigZagZurich Artist Wool Blanket Collection 2026 is a celebration of art, material and daily ritual. Each blanket invites contemporary creativity into the home in a way that feels direct, warm and usable. These are not artworks that remain distant on a wall; they are pieces to live with, touch, fold, layer and wrap around yourself. The collection moves between bold graphic statements, quiet abstractions, expressive figures and poetic narratives, showing how broad and versatile the blanket format can be. Made from pure New Zealand wool and woven in Europe, the pieces bring together comfort, craftsmanship and artistic identity. They can add colour to a neutral room, create a focal point on a sofa, bring warmth to a bed or become a personal object used every day. What makes the collection especially meaningful is the range of voices behind it. Each artist brings a different story, but the woven result connects them through material, scale and function. In this sense, the Artist Wool Blanket Collection 2026 captures what ZigZagZurich does best: transforming art into textiles that are beautiful, useful and emotionally present in everyday life.
