The relationship between fabric and form, considered from the outset.
Upholstery shapes the finished character of a piece. A broad pattern, a textured weave and a plain velvet each bring a different emphasis to its lines.
For a Saint Objets commission in Pierre Frey fabric, the silhouette and upholstery are considered together. A patterned velvet changes the mood of a piece; a quieter weave lets its outline lead. The selection is considered in relation to the design and the room.
L’Écrin in Bohème Quartz introduces this approach through a generous club-chair form. Discuss the edition or another project with the studio; the final design, fabric and quotation are agreed before production.

Bring the fabric or its details to the studio. Suitability for upholstery, availability and the scope of the work are reviewed before anything is confirmed.
Production runs ten to thirty days once the fabric is in the atelier, according to the scale of the project and the number of pieces. The fabric is ordered once your quotation is approved, so allow for that step separately.
At Decoroom, Art of Living Mall, where the design consultation is complimentary, and at our Dubai Design District studio by appointment. Seeing a patterned velvet in person matters, because a photograph flattens its texture.
