We love upholstery in velvet. Be it a straightforward cotton velvet or perhaps something more luxurious made from cashmere and silk…or just a plain silk velvet for that matter. We just love the textures.

Anyway.

Combine that with a quite striking and unusual design as in this contemporarily upholstered beige cotton velvet chair then you can get quite stunning results without the need to go for too much patter or detail on the fabric.

You can find out more about our velvets and mohair velvets here.

Really nice shot of this white faux leather chair from Taylor Llorente – unusual in the sense that the chair is taken from the rear which  I guess makes the image stand out a little more than it perhaps otherwise would do. We like the pure white faux leather of course but also the contrast to the medium-dark wooden legs and the dark upholstery pins.

I like this Andrew Winch laminated staircase, in fact I’m generally a big fan of laminated glass. (So much for being in the fabric industry!).

I’ve got some great photos in the V&A museum where there is a similar component to one of their architectural features. Great colour and light from something that is…almost colourless.

Gold and mirrors from 1508 design. Great wall textures, colour scheme and details. The photographer has chosen what appears to be an expansive view of the appartment, it would be interesting to explore this space from many angles. It is probably an unusually shaped room, beautifully designed.

Anouska Hempel hallway – superb architecture and interior design. We normally present images with a significant fabric content and, yes, there is some present here but along with bathrooms and kitchens this is an area of a house often devoid of fabric. Anyway we love the architectural lines of the stairwell as well as the juxtaposition of that with the bannister design. Colours are perfect and the curves flow beautifully everywhere – from the stairs to the mirror to the log basket.

This visually stunning chandelier would probably not be the best centrepiece for most living rooms…there wouldn’t be that much room to manoeuvre around it for most of us!
