A Fabric That Rocks!
Even if you’re not a huge fan of the Beatles, you probably instantly recognize the iconic group pictured on this fabric. It’s the photo from the back cover of their album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. This fabric caught my eye not once, but twice during visits to two different showrooms at the High Point International Home Furnishings Market earlier this week.
Century used it in a contemporary setting. They used the Beatles print for the back of this bench seat & contrasted it with black leather & a coordinating linen. The scheme is a blend of contrasting neutrals and textures. They paired it with a white lacquered end table, a fun black geometric screen & large round end table with a chrome pedestal base. The round table is arranged in front of the bench to serve as a small dining table. You could even use two of them in front of the bench to create a lounge feeling in a game room, media room, or hip home office or study.
Over at Vanguard, they took a more traditional approach. The same fabric in primary colors covers a cocktail ottoman with leather, nail head trim & an exposed wood base. An ottoman like this could add spunk in front of a gameroom or media room sofa. Or, if someone in your house is a huge Beatles fan or memorabilia collector, this would be perfect addition to a study with book or display cases housing their collection.
I have a lot more fun finds from market to come, so stay tuned!
