Faye Chatzi / Artisanal Weaver / fc@kimisoo.com
Faye Chatzi began her journey as a graphic designer in Mykonos but soon shifted towards expressing her creativity through the traditional art of weaving. In 2016, she launched her brand, FAYE CHATZI, which is dedicated to this ancient craft. For Faye, weaving is not just a creative outlet but a meditative practice rooted in Greek heritage and sustainability. Her work is entirely handmade, from the collection and preparation of raw wool to the weaving process itself, often integrating materials like silk, cotton, and linen. Her input to KIMISOO will explore inspiring collections for both classic and modern households through our capsule collection KIMISOO x FAYE CHATZI. The goal is to revive the craft of weaving, artfully marrying elements inspired from the classic Doric order with contemporary style.
