What's Hot from Sunbrella!

We always love getting out and about to see what’s new in the design world and one of our favorite stops is ADAC. We blogged last week about the amazing Inside Design event hosted with Elle Decor, House Beautiful, and Veranda we attended and the great showrooms we got to peek into.

One of our favorite vendors was on the roster of events last week and we were looking forward to checking out the lastest and greatest that they have to offer.

Offering Sunbrella products is a “win-win” for us and our clients. We are able to design beautiful rooms with gorgeous fabrics.  They include great colors,  interesting textures and softness while ensuring our client’s receive child, pet, and “life” proof fabrics. The durability and cleanliness can’t be beat.  We love using their fabrics on kitchen banquettes and chairs.  If there's a spill, a quick wipe with Clorox Clean Up and you're done!!

One of the perks of visiting their showroom was the chance to catch-up on what they are currently offering.  They manufacture fabrics for awnings, upholstery (indoor and out), drapery, marine tops and seating, and umbrellas. This hillside retreat shows off their beautiful outdoor line- I just LOVE those ottomans!

One of their newest partnerships is with Textillery, a handwoven throw company. Not only are these throws made from beautiful colors and weaves, but they are also made for indoor/outdoor use with Sunbrella fibers. Who wouldn’t want to cuddle up with one of these on a cool summer night!

They even make commercial blankets too!  You will find these in places like The Four Seasons in Maui and Honk Kong along with The Hilton in Times Square, to name a few.

Another stand-out partnership with Sunbrella is Colonial Mills Inc., a rug company. Their indoor/outdoor rugs are perfect for a deck or patio or inside for a playroom for kids or a realistic dining room.   This houndstooth rug is from the outdoor collection, the turquoise is such a fun, vibrant color!

This yellow and gray beauty is from the playroom collection. It’s braided quality adds interest and the color combination is right on trend.  It would look adorable in a nursery paired with some geometric gray and yellow fabrics.

Of course Sunbrella’s new line speaks for itself! Here are a few of our favorite new fabrics from 2013! Luxe Indigo would be great for upholstery on an outdoor bench!

This Bristol Air Blue print is super cute on this outdoor chair!

El Greco Calypso is another fun find from the newest collection. I love it on this indoor upholstery. It’s ideal for clients with squirmy kids, muddy pets, or a tendency to spill their wine (don’t worry- we fall under all of these categories!).

The Atlanta loft is located in the trendy Atlantic Station district and is designed using ONLY Sunbrella fabrics. The space is so chic and is done to the nines. Any socialite would KILL to live there!
