TEXTILE DESIGN AND SILKSCREEN PRINTING SINCE 1995
MATRIX has been designing and producing distinctive accessories in Swiss quality since 1995. Founder and textile designer, Fabia Zindel, is still responsible for the design and production of all MATRIX collections. In 2010, the MATRIX label shop was opened at St. Johanns-Vorstadt 38 in Basel.PRODUCTS
The MATRIX product range is divided into fashion accessories and homeware. Every year, an extensive foulard collection and items for the interior such as serving trays, stationery, glassware, towels, cushions and blankets are created. MATRIX regularly seeks to cooperate with local manufacturers in order to develop objects that match and complement the current selection of items in the store thematically. Since 2005, MATRIX has been realising patterned facades, interiors, acoustic elements and wallpapers for selected architectural projects.
INSPIRATION
The MATRIX collections draw inspiration from the topicality of everyday life, art and science. The themes are diverse, ranging from «Rhine» 2021 to «Salt» 2022, «Wind» 2023 and «Umami» 2024. The patterns and colours of the MATRIX products are designed that all items in a collection can be easily assorted and combined with each other. The colours respond to current trends while providing a colour palette spanning from subtle to vibrant.
ENVIRONMENT
MATRIX products follow a strict environmental concept. Only fabrics made from natural fibres such as silk, wool or linen are used and water-soluble dyes are utilized for printing. All MATRIX collections are manufactured as small series entirely in Switzerland, with most of the production steps taking place in the Basel studio. The foulards have hand rolled hems crafted by artisans in Appenzell. MATRIX emphasises the conscious use of resources, focusing on manufacturing durable, high-quality products.
IDENTITY
Fabia Zindel is responsible for the manufacture of a MATRIX product, from the initial design stage through to final production. This approach is adopted to ensure that the original concept of the product is consistently reflected in the resulting object. In addition, all MATRIX products are tested as prototypes prior to release. MATRIX collections are limited editions; each MATRIX foulard is limited to a maximum of 20.

By embracing its core values, MATRIX has established itself as a leading Swiss design label with international appeal. MATRIX products are presented in its own dedicated label shop as well as in selected shops, and are sold worldwide. They are high-quality products for a clientele that is discerning and aware of form, material and durability.
