Global Excellence Awards 2025 | 9 It is in the balancing of a client’s wishes with both the clarity of Scandinavian aesthetics and the painstaking precision of hand-painting and embroidery that Ennisance’s talent truly shines. This is achieved not by following a fixed, linear process, but by adapting thoughtfully and intuitively to every unique situation and design. Enni herself told us: “If, for example, a client envisions a motif for which our existing embroidery techniques are not suitable, we will explore how a new technique can be developed and brought to life.” This goes some way in capturing the sense of luxury Ennisance strives for with its creations, something reflected further in it using only the finest materials and executing its work in a way that is kind to the environment. Working within the realm of luxury requires not only a profound understanding of the environment one operates in, but also a strong sense of self-assurance in one’s own knowledge and craft. It means also that one must go beyond their own tastes and think with an entirely different mindset – guided only by the infallible combination of the artist’s skill and the innate power exuded by art and nature symbolism. The finished product boosts wellbeing in its allotted room. Ennisance’s commitment to using only natural materials continues this affinity with nature, and is something carried out not just because it aligns this atelier with the future of responsible craftsmanship, but because it reflects the raw soulfulness clients expect from designs that are real. Enni explained: “In the silk, you can still follow the subtle traces of the silk moths, just as one sees the places where branches used to be in a wooden floor. We seek to replicate nature’s beauty, capturing its depth and authenticity in our work.” As you might expect, all of this adds up to make Ennisance the only company of its kind across both Sweden and the Nordic region, with traditional chinoiserie wallcoverings being a niche that few others have – or even could – enter. This brings with it a host of challenges and opportunities for the company, which is singlehandedly trying to introduce a new way of experiencing beauty in a region where the dominance Scandinavian design style with its long-established shapes and forms is the standard. So, whilst it may not be disrupting the space from within (there is no need to change the timeless processes of crafting chinoiseries wallpapers which have been perfected over the centuries), what Ennisance is doing is much bigger and more important: preserving and celebrating something that is greater than themselves. This is not to say that Ennisance is missing the opportunity to innovative within its lane, and this can be seen through the exploration of new possibilities, such as reimagining Chinese silk embroidery. To access cutting-edge talent and artistic expertise, Enni not only collaborates with talents in Sweden but also across borders with designers around the world. Ukraine, Italy, the United States, and rural China are just a few of the places where like-minded creatives have worked with the brand to bring her visions to life. Many of those Enni works with are women, a decision she has made because of the profound strength that comes about when women support women, uniting the power of sisterhood. Enni strives to honour this at every turn through Ennisance, resulting in a culture of acceptance. “To navigate a global landscape like this, one must approach different cultures, backgrounds, skills, and personalities with curiosity and openness, recognising the beauty in our differences. This, I hope and believe, fuels creativity and a sense of joy within the team.” Entering its fifth year, Ennisance moves into a new chapter—an expansion that feels both considered and inevitable. This evolution includes the opening of a showroom in Stockholm’s Östermalm, the introduction of a collaboration in London’s Belgravia, and a return to the brand’s origins through Enni’s lifelong passion for horticulture and cultivated landscapes. A curated garden design service, developed in close collaboration with esteemed garden designers, will extend the Ennisance philosophy beyond interiors and into the living landscape itself. Looking back on the year Ennisance has had, 2025 was another example of the relentless commitment to uncompromised quality and cultivated craftsmanship that this atelier has built its reputation atop of since Enni established it back in 2021. Its view of art as being the bridge between the soul and the world around us is reflected through its remarkable silk and gilded wallpapers, and the elegance, individuality, and luxury they offer is quite unlike anything else we have seen this past year. For this, it is our pleasure to celebrate its great work. More on Ennisance’s exceptional product line can be found at the link below.
