For many people, textiles are a consuming passion. A chair can be an object of sculptural beauty, but an appeal is over textile touch. And with her fabric designs and textile application forms to be considered carefully, as if the contemplation of a painting his use of color and ingenuity of the composition. More surprising, textiles and carpets are often mistakenly viewed as the poor relations housewares large or heavy items like furniture or lighting. Perhaps because they are flat and two-dimensional and therefore easier to forget or overlook.
However, many renowned designers have had a hand in textile design, recognizing the importance of textiles and fabrics in interior decoration and each time took its classic look and pattern. During the decade 1920 the most common reasons were abstract or stylized overlapping circles with squares or prominently with other geometric designs. Entering year Thirty models became more abstract in style characterized by famous textile designers of the era, as Marion and Evelyn Dorn Wild. Techniques improved intend to die, accurate color lines and contrast more clearly, this classic linear abstract reason can be found in many fabrics and carpets today, as it is a style that fits well with contemporary fashion. Forties and fifties was restricted palette become the avant-garde fashion through of what originally was a necessity. The war years had left a drain on resources and short if the color silver in the textile mills have been limited. This has resulted on white background and minimal models of the era's iconic look, with the textile designer Ray Eames get the most famous pieces of fabric in this style imitated.
The new materials introduced in the Sixties and to enable more plasticity in furniture design. Curved surfaces and free-form shapes, became fashionable and this was reflected in textiles with circular motions in the case of carpets, came in a circular or oval. In popular culture began to dictate everything goes nuts, textiles began to have more appeal to famous fashion houses as Christian Dior and Mary Quant, who is still create both bed and bath linen, which summarizes the terms of the time.
In moving away from traditional patterns and textile designers, there were also certain types textiles, which have become synonymous with the times and are essential especially if you attempt a recreation of his home. Stack stuffed sheep and a rug are substances retro, since it also sit next to the plastic of the sixties and seventies teak. Zebra skins of animals really site complete an Art Deco theme when used on a carpet, together with thick velvet curtains around. For the 1950s-style interiors, synthetic materials like vinyl, polyester and rayon, should be used.
Now as modern textiles and carpets, especially those designed by well known names such as Eileen Gray, Ray Eames and Lucienne day are as collectibles, many homeowners hang their acquisitions in the wall like paintings or tapestries. This allows them to be valued as a precious object they are, and prevents unnecessary wear.

Eames
$12.36 Pioneers of the 1950s and of the optimistic American way of life, Charles and Ray Eames created the greatest modern furniture classics between 1941 and 1978. They designed more than 20 chair models, mostly unique pieces, and developed know-how in the art of sitting. The Plywood Chairs LCW and DCW (1946), the Aluminum Group (1958) and the Lounge Chair (1956) have become true symbols of design that remain references today. Still produced, they inspire the admiration of new generations to convey the generous social ideal of their designers. The wholehearted dedication of Charles and Ray Eames to creating beautiful and top-quality mass-market products, and the joy imparted through their free forms, gave rise to the myth of a human and sensual modernity. A mythical couple, probably one of the most productive and creative of the 20th century. |
