Designtex, the leading designer and manufacturer of applied materials for the built environment, is embracing a more is more approach with their newest releases: Racetrack, Emblem, and Liliana. With small checks, high-contrast stripes, and a floral design inspired by the millefleur style, these distinctive indoor/outdoor patterns can’t help but emanate an Italian holiday vibe that adds a dose of high performance luxury.
Racetrack is a true original. The indoor/outdoor textile features a clever contrast of sumptuous velvet with natural raffia-like yarn. The vibrant textile is crafted in Italy with enthusiasm for every detail. Available in six colors, Racetrack’s checkered motif borrows from the iconic final lap flag for an attention-grabbing visual, while time-tested saturated hues create a deliberate contrast. Racetrack is made with 46 percent solution-dyed Acrylic, 36 percent Polyethylene, and 18 percent Polyester. It carries certifications and programs in HPD, LEED, and SCS Indoor Advantage Gold while featuring Low VOCs, No Antimicrobials, No Flame Retardants, No PFAS, and No PVC.
“Racetrack and Emblem make me think of sumptuous spaces, delightful hospitality, and a love of fine detail,” says Designtex VP of Design, Catherine Stowell. There is so much knowledge imbued into the creation of these textiles; they bring together unique yarns and lush constructions in an array of rich colors.”
Emblem’s playful, small-scale check will sing with style outdoors or in. The textile utilizes high performance yarns borrowed from the fashion industry to bring its visual appeal to life. Choose from a palette of nine hues and invite a welcome, joyful mood into a space. Emblem can be paired with Racetrack or as a partner to other patterns and solids. Emblem is 100 percent Polypropylene and carries HPD and SCS Indoor Advantage Gold with No Antimicrobials, No Flame Retardants, No PFAS, and No PVC.
Designtex Digital Studio’s latest addition, Liliana, is an exuberant and lush painted floral inspired by the millefleur style, where botanicals appear to grow organically from the background, creating an atmosphere of natural beauty, vitality, and visual exploration. Bringing together digital print technology and the artistry of hand-painted imagery, Liliana is perfect for creating welcoming, joyful environments. Choose from eight palettes, various scales, and six material options to refine the pattern using the Designtex Digital Studio tool, and Liliana will flourish across wallcoverings, upholstery, or multi use applications. Pair the design with designs like Racetrack and Emblem to create an ultra-bold effect.
