In My Own Time is earthy-toned pattern inspired by the organic shapes of tree branches.

There's a quiet luxury in moving at your own pace, in letting the hours unfold without a plan. Finnish design duo Saana ja Olli invites you to embrace exactly that with their new home textile collection, In My Own Time. Step in, slow down, and find the pieces that make space for your most unhurried moments.

FOR MANY OF US, the best part of summer isn't doing something – it's doing nothing at all. The Finns call it joutilaisuus: a state of idleness and unhurried being, a gentle pause from the rush of everyday life.

Finnish design brand Saana ja Olli has created a pattern made for exactly these rare but well-earned moments of slowness and quiet indulgence. The collection, fittingly named In My Own Time (or Joutilas in Finnish), brings that same easy spirit straight into your home décor. Explore the textiles and find the pieces that feel like yours!

Freedom, wandering, daydreaming, unwinding – idleness goes by many names, but every one of them comes down to taking time for yourself and savouring it, in your own time.

So put your feet up and let the coming summer days lull you into a blissful state of doing nothing at all.

We especially recommend the In My Own Time textiles as companions for lounging and losing yourself in a good book…

…and of course for stocking up on, because there's plenty to go around for all the like-minded loved ones in your life who appreciate a good moment of doing nothing.

Crafted from 100% hemp fabric, these home textiles are an ode to the quiet value of doing nothing.

The collection continues the bold graphic yet quietly harmonious style that Saana Sipilä and Olli Sallinen have made their signature as a design duo. With its soft shapes and earthy, balanced color palette, the Joutilas pattern invites you to slow down and embrace the simple pleasure of doing absolutely nothing at all.

The In My Own Time tea cosy keeps your teapot warm, so there's all the time in the world to savour a second cup in peace.

The pieces in the collection move effortlessly from one room to another.

The roomy In My Own Time pouch holds all your jars, bottles, and tubes with ease.

At the same time, the pattern brings a fresh new look to the bathroom.

We especially recommend the In My Own Time collection to anyone looking to bring a touch of Finnish design into their home, along with a gentle reminder that perfect idleness, too, is something to be treasured.

At its very best, the time of your own looks just like this.
