In my opinion, fabric is the most tangible and visual of all results in interiors, it can reveal a lot about how much thought was put into each decision during the entire design process that takes to decorate an interior. My current client is a City lady with a very traditional taste, so we decided to use fabric that would stand the test of time. The sofa, purchased at ABC Carpet, went from dull to lively after replacing the very antiquated rough silk with a depressing color for a bright blue velvet from Kravet. The pillow fabric is by Thom Filicia which we are also using on two
fauteuils. It's amazing what a change of fabric can do. Her existing bench was a keeper but the prior fabric was not letting the beautiful piece shine by itself, so it was recovered in a beautiful leopard that has a hint of blue. As many apartments in the City, this one is a little bit on the small side, so it was crucial to find pieces that would not overcrowd or weigh the room down. When looking for counter stools for the kitchen island,
these ones from Anthropologie came to my mind. They look so artistic and light, they look like
Cristian Astuguevieille rope furniture. To make them more suitable for a city apartment and also to make them more comfortable we added a seat cushion and upholstered them in a branchy-like fabric, also from Kravet.
The Kitchen counter top has been replaced and I can't wait until we do this installation and share with you more images.
