Interior brand Kvadrat paid tribute to Fanny's work in a statement on their website: "Fanny Aronsen designed all her own fabrics, putting strong emphasis on quality development of natural materials and the manufacturing process. Her visual trademark was luxurious tactile fabrics with intriguing textures and sumptuous colours. Her attention to detail, craftsmanship and the technicality of her designs made a strong textile mark on the interior world. She will be greatly missed by all of us."
