Racines

A collection that is both contemporary and rooted, inviting us to inhabit the world differently. Racines is a textile collection born of a unique partnership between Elitis, fabric designer, and LUMA through Atelier LUMA, its design research lab.

This collection is part of a pioneering approach. For the first time, a collection has been developed on a large scale by applying the principles of bioregional design: showcasing Arles merino wool, engaging a regional industrial ecosystem, and drawing its color palette from living sources—thanks to local dye plants and agricultural co-products. This project resonates with current ecological challenges through a shared commitment to full traceability, from fiber to finishing, resulting in a fully French-made product where every step is carefully controlled for a more sustainable future. The joint visits to the various production sites enabled us to achieve the level of quality and precision needed to deliver an innovative project that reflects the spirit of Luma and Élitis.
