New Textile Chapter: Bilpin | Milan Design Week 2025.
Launched at Milan Design Week 2025, Bilpin marks the third chapter in Innate’s textile story. Inspired by Luke Sciberras’ painting Rising Heat, Bilpin (2020), the collection translates scorched tones, shifting light, and the raw beauty of the Australian landscape into textiles. Designed to be lived with, layered, and loved.
Australia is a paradox.
A vast, inland desert fringed by paradise. This land and its people are connected, imbued with its colour, its textures, its sounds. We exist between two great forces; the elements that would have us vanish, and the abundance of life in our seas, our sky, our light, and our earth. We are that great southern land. The Innate textile collection embraces that paradox, forging a contemporary Australian aesthetic.
View the Collections: Territory & Ilford.
Grounded in the Australian landscape, the Territory and Ilford collections translate place into textile. From the sun-bleached textures of the Northern Territory to the sculptural beauty of the Waratah, each design balances tone, tactility, and story—crafted for contemporary interiors with an Innate sense of connection.





The Innate Textile collection begins a new chapter for two ardent disciples of textile design, Fiona Spence and Wanda Jelmini.
Their collaboration gives rise to a new interpretation of Australia: informal, relaxed and sensual. Innate textiles seek to express the very essence of that great southern land. The inaugural soft furnishings and bath towel collection takes its inspiration from works by celebrated Australian painter Luke Sciberras.



About our designers
Fiona Spence built her company Spence & Lyda into one of the leading design retailers in Australia before selling the business in 2022.
Wanda Jelmini spent her career as lead textile designer for the homewares branch of the illustrious Milanese fashion house Missoni before it was sold in 2018. As a niece to matriarch Rosita Missoni, Wanda was instrumental in the global success of Missoni Home.
The pair met when Spence and Lyda became the exclusive Australian distributor for Missoni Home in 2002 and established an immediate friendship and aesthetic understanding.
Decades later, each found themselves at pivotal points in their lives with great achievements to date and yet a sense of more to be done … and who better to collaborate with. The result is Innate Textiles.
