| Book Description | Interior designers and architects need to thoroughly understand fabric in order to satisfy clients' needs and effectively meet the requirements of a given space. Fabric for the Designed Interior is a comprehensive text for students and professionals, addressing both residential and commercial interiors. Early chapters place fabric in a historic context, examining its connection to the growth of civilization. Chapters with a practical orientation provide readers with the tools they need for successfully specifying fabric, dealing with environmental and safety concerns, understanding fabric and carpet-care issues, working with bids and contracts, and learning strategies for navigating through showrooms and fabricating facilities. Leading designers, fabric manufacturers, and suppliers weigh in with their experiences, giving readers a clear idea of real-world expectations. |
