Velvet
A soft surface and rich colour. We consider pile direction, care and the properties of the specific fabric.
UPHOLSTERY MATERIALS
Materials for everyday living.
Colour and texture change how furniture looks and feels. Material properties affect comfort, use and care.
Jacquard
A distinctive weave and pattern, suited to furniture whose texture is part of its character.
Chenille
Textured yarn and a pleasant feel. Collections differ in composition and performance; we check the sample and the manufacturer’s guidance.
Woven upholstery fabric
A visible weave and even geometry that emphasise a simple shape and colour.
Leather
A distinctive feel and natural grain. Material quality, cutting and suitable care all matter.
Faux leather
An even surface and a wide choice of colours. Durability and care depend on its composition and conditions of use.
CHOOSING A MATERIAL
Look. Feel. Compare.
We choose the material together, considering the room’s light, the furniture’s shape and how it is used. Tell us about children or pets. We discuss fabric availability and samples for each project.
