Røde træer – cushion – Søren Nielsen (SN)
"Red Trees" is an embroidered cushion in which Søren Nielsen — known from the brand BALDYRE — explores natural forms through colour and repetition. The motif consists of deciduous trees with varying crowns and branch structures, repeated in an overall pattern. The trees appear as graphic silhouettes, together forming a calm yet striking surface.
The composition is all-over and rhythmic. Individual trees vary in density and form, creating movement and depth without disturbing the overall balance. The pattern has no fixed orientation, allowing the cushion to work equally well from all sides and giving it a stable, harmonious expression.
The colour palette is concentrated and atmospheric. Red hues range from deep, dark tones to lighter variations created by the density of the stitches. The colour lends the motif warmth and weight and contrasts clearly with the light linen ground. Danish Flower Thread provides a matte surface and rich colour depth that reinforces the graphic character.
Linen 10B acts as a calm, natural base that highlights the tree silhouettes and the precision of the stitching. The fabric’s texture adds a classic Nordic feel and a clear sense of craftsmanship.
Red Trees works as a strong interior element, both on its own and combined with other textiles. It suits a sofa, armchair or bench, adding warmth and character to the space. For retailers, the cushion is a compelling addition to ranges focused on nature-inspired motifs, expressive colour and timeless Danish design.
