Organizations Known for Long Lasting Design and Quality Team Up to Launch Series of Products Over Multi-Year Partnership
Faribault Mill, the storied Minnesota manufacturer known for crafting premium American-made blankets, throws, and accessories since 1865, today announced a three-year partnership with the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation to launch a series of products that showcase the vision of America’s greatest architect. The collection launched on March 16.
The line will initially feature six styles all crafted in Minnesota from 100% natural materials and inspired by the iconic architectural designs of Frank Lloyd Wright with additional products dropping throughout the partnership. A percentage of each purchase will be donated back to the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation to further their mission of inspiring people to discover and embrace architecture for better living through meaningful connections to nature, the arts and each other.
“We are thrilled to partner on a collection that celebrates the timeless brilliance of Frank Lloyd Wright’s architectural vision,” said Ross Widmoyer, President and CEO of Faribault Mill. “Just as Wright harmonized form and function, our blankets blend heritage craftsmanship with iconic design — creating pieces that are as beautiful as they are enduring. This collaboration embodies our commitment to quality, artistry and the enduring spirit of American creativity.”
The collection will be for sale at Faribault Mill retail locations, online and through select retailers, museums and gift shops across the country with initial designs inspired by:
- Hollyhock House in Los Angeles, Calif.
- Ennis House in Los Angeles, Calif.
- Millard House in Pasadena, Calif.
- Coonley Playhouse in Riverside, Ill.
- Liberty Frozen Spheres originally designed for Liberty Magazine in 1927
“We’re honored to partner with a brand with such a long heritage of craftsmanship and enduring quality,” said Henry Hendrix, Chief Marketing Officer of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. “By partnering with Faribault Mill, we’re offering a beautiful new way to translate Wright’s timeless principles into objects of comfort and beauty for the home.”
