Understanding Fabric Combinations

Posted on

When designing your bespoke dining chairs or bar stools, there are several fabric combination possibilities to choose from. The available options are model-dependent, and below is a breakdown of the key fabric combinations:


All Over


For a cohesive look, you can upholster the entire chair in a single fabric. This option creates a seamless design across all areas of the chair, and it can work well for those seeking simplicity.

 

Inside Back


The inside back allows for additional creativity. You can choose a fabric that complements or contrasts with other areas of the chair. This option may vary depending on the model.

 The inside back allows for additional creativity. You can choose to incorporate the pattern from the outside back onto the front of the chair so you see the pattern from all angles of the room. This option may vary depending on the model.


Outside Back


The outside back is often an area to introduce a complementary/contrasting fabric, depending on how much of the chair’s back will be visible in your space.

We advise this piece is your starting point when looking for split fabrics – you can then build the rest of the chair design around this.

Seat


The seat is typically where durability is a priority. You can select a fabric that fits both the look and function you want for everyday use.
