Luum Textiles is excited to announce the release of its new Twist on a Classic collection. In the spirit of reinvention, Suzanne Tick modernizes timeless weave structures in the May launch.
Houndstooth, herringbone, nubby modern wool, boucle texture, two-toned drapery, and large-scale graphic pattern motif are reimagined through scale studies, iridescent color combinations, and coating technology that make for unique, tactile surfaces. Crafted with a commitment to sustainability, these six textiles tell a story of mindful innovation upon every interior surface.
Hyped Up Inspired by the contrasting check-and-block shape of houndstooth, Hyped Up turns this traditional pattern up a notch—enlarging the iconic shape with multicolor weaves to establish an entirely new feel. Recycled performance yarns display a linen-like slub effect that creates unexpected color combinations with a subtle iridescence when applied to furniture. Hyped Up extends Structured Stripe and Duo Chrome’s product line in a sustainable way, for a holistic interior solution in nine fresh colorways.
Herringbone Hybrid Combining the depth and beauty of woven textiles with the performance of coated materials, Herringbone Hybrid offers the best of both worlds to seating. To attain its organic chevron motif, heathered yarns are twisted and woven into a broken twill jacquard pattern, after which a polyester base cloth and a thermoplastic elastomer topcoat is applied. This high-performance upholstery is wipeable, sanitizable, and resistant to ink, stains, and abrasions—elevating a time-trusted suiting material for healthcare, higher education, workplace, and hospitality settings through 11 complex colorways.
Sgraffito Inspired by the artisanal technique of scratching away plasterwork to reveal a differently-colored layer beneath, Sgraffito employs a tonal two-color, organic curvilinear pattern, with chenille yarns that rise to reveal a hand-chiseled effect that moves vertically and horizontally across the surface. The upholstery’s natural variation can transform groups of furniture, giving each piece a unique feel while maintaining harmony within a space. Designed to minimize waste in upholstery applications and suitable for high-performance spaces, Sgraffito is bleach-cleanable, high UV, and has a PFAS-free stain repellent.
Wooly Wooly Wooly Wooly upholstery showcases the luxury of wool at full volume. Simple and timeless like a mid-century modern slubby wool boucle, artfully-mixed mélanges of heathered yarns are crafted from a blend of tones to showcase the contrasting relationship between dark and light—creating a sophisticated, nuanced palette. Available in a range of 10 colorways, Wooly Wooly’s enmeshed renewable fibers use wool, cotton, acrylic, and polyester, to ground a space in comfort.
Demi Boucle A multi-purpose textile with the feel of handspun, looped boucle yarn, Demi Boucle offers the performance and cleanability needed for today’s dynamic spaces. With 100% recycled polyester in the warp and weft, its textural surface and expansive color palette can be applied to upholstery, wrapped walls, panels, and screens—enhancing every surface of the built environment with durability, and depth of color and texture. Demi Boucle’s palette of 18 mainstays range from grounded neutrals to fresh pops, drawing inspiration from the colors of the natural world.
Afterimage Sharing a lineage with Gaze drapery, Afterimage is a semi-sheer drapery that explores the beauty of woven, ombre color effects and large-scale striae patterning in vertical spaces. Made of a soft, elegant, reversible wool blend, this material creates an enlivening back-and-forth between open collaborative spaces and more private offices—as one hue blends with another. Inherently fire retardant and 126” in width, Afterimage sets the tone in a space and offers a highly-usable solution for hospitality, higher education, and workplaces alike. Designed to be railroaded, Afterimage’s expansive pattern repeats vertically every 27” inches across the textile, resulting in a monumental effect as the material ripples. Available in six fresh combinations of warms and cools, and neutrals with brights, Afterimage shapes the outlook of a space by diffusing light into a unique glowing effect.
