Maliq is a small Croatian design studio committed to unconventional, thoughtful, highly aesthetic and ethical textile design narratively relying on Croatian heritage, storytelling and the emotion driven by Slavonian textures, culture and scenery.
Maliq is a Croatian design studio focused on interior textile design and production.
Besides its permanent collections, Maliq designs custom-made textile products for its customers to adorn the interiors they live in. Its designs spill over onto cushions, curtains, bed linen, carpets and other final products functionally adapted to suit the customer’s needs.
Maliq’s work evokes the memories of Croatian heritage, channels emotions and creates products prompting verbal expression, supported by highly aesthetic, thoughtful design of their maker and meticulously chosen fabrics procured from proven ethical vendors.
The collections feature a recognizable signature inspired by ethnographic elements and textures authentic to Slavonia, the author’s native region.
The name Maliq given to the studio and the brand is derived from the Slavonian cultural heritage and motives, and from the written oeuvre of famous Croatian author Ivana Brlić Mažuranić [the name of one of the Brownies (Domaći in Croatian) is Wee Tintilinkie, or Malik Tintilinić in Croatian], calling to our minds the thoughts about the iconic forest – Stribor’s Forest – inhabited by those who harbor only the best and unselfish intentions.
