Grønne træer – cushion – Søren Nielsen (SN)

"Green Trees" is an embroidered cushion in which Søren Nielsen — known from BALDYRE — works with the forms of nature in a clear, rhythmic expression. The motif consists of a collection of deciduous trees, each with its own character and crown shape, rendered in a uniform green colour palette. The trees stand freely across the surface, together forming a lively yet balanced pattern.

The composition is surface-covering and built through repetition. The individual trees vary in density and structure, creating a calm movement across the cushion. The pattern has no fixed orientation, allowing the cushion to work visually from all sides and maintain its expression regardless of placement.

The colour scheme is simple and cohesive. Green tones dominate, giving the motif freshness and clarity. Variation arises through the stitching and the construction of the trees rather than through changes in colour. Danish Flower Thread supports this with its matte surface and clear colour depth, giving the embroidery life without appearing heavy.

Linen 10B serves as a calm and natural base. The fabric’s texture contrasts with the dense stitching and highlights the trees’ graphic silhouettes. The interplay between thread and linen gives the cushion a classic Nordic character with a clear sense of craftsmanship.

Green Trees works well as a decorative cushion in both private homes and professional environments. It functions beautifully on its own but can also be combined with other nature-inspired textiles. For retailers, the cushion is an excellent choice for assortments focused on Nordic design, nature motifs, and timeless embroidery of high quality.
