Velvet, linen, or leather? A comprehensive guide to choosing the right material for your lifestyle.
Choosing the right fabric for your furniture is one of the most important decisions in interior design. Let's explore your options:
Velvet
Luxurious and sophisticated, velvet adds instant elegance to any space. Modern velvet is more durable than ever, with stain-resistant options available.
Linen
Natural and breathable, linen offers a relaxed, lived-in aesthetic. It softens beautifully with age and use.
Leather
Timeless and durable, leather develops a beautiful patina over time. Ideal for high-traffic areas and homes with pets.
Performance Fabrics
