New Textile Collection by Minni’s Founder

The Up Collection by Kelly Harris Smith

Minni’s Founder and Creative Director, Kelly Harris Smith, recently introduced the Up Collection for HBF Textiles, a new assortment of textiles inspired by urban living. When she’s not running our community art center, Kelly uses Minni as her design studio and draws her inspiration from walking around the bustling city. HBF was kind enough to document Kelly speaking proudly about Minni and blending her two passions. Click the link below to watch the film.  

“The Up Collection captures the essence of city life through durable, highly cleanable textiles and recycled fabrics.”

-HBF Textiles

“Living in the city, pattern is all around. I look up a lot. I’m an avid cloud watcher and architectural façade enthusiast, but I’m also looking down as I’m walking around, noticing brick patterns, seemingly unglamorous utility covers, and sewer grates. Patterns, textures, and colors are constantly changing throughout the day.”
