ELEGANT AND VIBRANT

Fame is a unique woollen upholstery fabric with a wearability of 200,000 Martindale, but which is nevertheless extra soft and stretchable.

The fabric is silky smooth thanks to its exclusive fine worsted wool – a finer wool than is generally seen on the contract market, but assured of outstanding durability via new yarn structures and spinning methods

Fame possesses unique upholstering properties. The fabric stretches 9.5% in both directions. Perfect upholstering is therefore easier with Fame, even on furniture with round and organic forms.

The colour palette consists of 60 futuristic and dynamic colours. The scale has a dynamic expression incorporating hints of green, yellow, orange and red. Brown, copper and rust tones make a strong visual impact in combination with fresh and luminous pastels. Refreshing blue shades are chosen for their fluidity, and they float across the material in waves ranging from grey-blue to aqua into deep indigo.

Combine wool and mesh fabrics

Fame colours are made to match our mesh fabrics Runner and Omega to express a fusion between minimalistic Fame textures and the playful look of our beautiful mesh solutions.
