When it comes to the world of home décor, fabric design is one traditional trade that has been steadily gaining wide appeal. In recent years, fabric manufacturers have inspired homeowners with a shift in trending furniture and window treatment ideas, incorporating performance textiles that are at once luxurious, durable and stylish. Novelty textiles are making a big splash, with the rise in small-batch, artisanal fabric makers and indoor-outdoor fabrics have expanded to include more colorful and patterned options.
Take a closer look at the trends you can see in fabrics that are made to last—in style and in strength.
Super Durable and Soft
A new generation of performance fabrics, which have been technologically enhanced to be stain-, mold- and mildew-resistant, has been redefining practical upholstery textiles. Designed with family living in mind, today’s performance fabrics are made to be extremely durable, yet ultrasoft to the touch.
If you’re considering new upholstery, like a sofa or ottoman, you’ll find options ranging from crisp white cotton to bold-blue velvet that are all made to withstand spills and wear but are luxuriously comfortable.
Pretty Pastels and Botanicals
As performance fabrics are coming up in style, they’re also embracing a broader (and softer) color scheme. We’ll be seeing colors traditionally associated with practical upholstery, such as beige, taupe and brown, replaced with pretty pastels and soothing greens and blues.
fabric and more. So, while you might choose a soft-hued fabric that seems delicate, it’s actually wonderfully durable and none too precious.
Distinctive Patterns and Designs
When it comes to durable fabrics, we can’t forget indoor-outdoor textiles. While we often see cabana stripes and geometrics in these weather-resistant fabrics, we’re excited to discover more unique patterns by designers who are teaming up with textile manufacturers.
