Edifice Quilt
Meet the Edifice Quilt from the Spolia Collection. This blue-hued quilt is inspired by the imposing scale and geometric shapes of the Frankish castle but reimagined in a new, creative form. The term "edifice" not only refers to a large building but also stems from the Latin word aedificium, combining "dwelling" and "making." This modern quilt embodies that fusion, reflecting how art allows us to dwell more deeply in the world and create from that immersive experience. Crafted with care, the Edifice Quilt brings a touch of historical elegance and creative depth to your home decor, blending tradition with innovation.

Add a hanging sleeve to turn your quilt into a piece of wall art. The sleeve is made with the same fabric as the quilt back and lies flat when not hanging, so you can still use it as a quilt. Simply slide a rod through the sleeve and hang on each end.

The Edifice designs are considered recreations within the collection – designs built from the geometric shapes of the Frankish castle that inspired them but with little resemblance to the original source. The word “edifice” refers to a particularly large or imposing building, which describes even what little remains of the castle, and comes from the Latin word aedificium, which in turn combines the root aedis (dwelling) with facere (to make). The roots of “edifice” interestingly intermingle dwelling with making, and dwelling and making are indeed deeply intertwined in the creative process. Art allows us to more deeply dwell in the world, to experience it more fully and acutely, and dwelling in turn is itself essential to the act of creating – listening, sensing, observing, and questioning our surroundings.
