A Fabric Sample is a Designer’s Best Friend

Designing your interior can be a wonderfully inspiring process; how will my new bedspread or sofa cover look? Sometimes it’s is still hard to make decisions. Are the shades and quality right? Will this particular colour beautifully match the mood in my beloved painting? Or will the upholstered sofa become the focal point of the room, determining the tone of the walls?The atmosphere, light or shadows, existing furniture, and surface materials affect our choices. For a new property or a complete renovation, colours, paints and wallpapers can be mixed and matched using sample pieces and inspiration boards. Sometimes it is impossible to make a choice online or even in a brick-and-mortar store.

Template tiles also help you make bolder choices. When you can be sure of the quality and colour of the fabric, you don’t have to settle for a familiar and safe, and at the same time perhaps predictable, option.

Textiles add warmth and softness to an interior. They are the closest to us when it comes to interior design. It’s lovely to wrap yourself up in a blanket when sitting on a sofa and rest your head on a cushion. You can easily spend hours in your favourite armchair or reading on the bed on a bedspread. To feel the tactile quality of textiles is very important to us; with a fabric sample, you can also ensure quality.

Whether it’s a new or old item, a fabric sample is a great design tool. Samples of Normandie and Contract collections are now available to order on our website. Under each fabric, you can find a link “order your sample here”
