Patterned leather is not uncommon, but Layered Tiles, created by London-based leather designer Genevieve Bennett for Spinneybeck, offer decorative geometric detailing. Three patterns are available: Maze, which is inspired by Chinese lattice wooden screens and Parterre-style French gardens; Facet, which is based on cut diamonds and precious stones; and Harlequin, which takes its design from the hole details found around the seams of traditional brogue shoes in Ireland and Scotland. The wall tiles are made of the company’s belting leather, which is Greenguard certified and has no VOCs. spinneybeck.com
