New Collections from Osborne & Little
Many of the fabrics and wall coverings in the Fall 2011 collections are  inspired by wildlife, but these fabrics and wall coverings also come in tame, sophisticated colorways.
SABI COLLECTION: Modern fabrics are ideal for contemporary hotel design. Their washability also makes them an attractive choice for domestic interiors. Most of the designs are interpretations of the coats or skins of wild animals and are named after game reserves in Africa. Fabrics with a similar animal theme and colour palette are to be found in SABI VELVETS.
SABI VELVETS: A collection of four velvets named after African game reserves, embossed to resemble animal skins and coats. All have excellent Martindale abrasion results.
KOMODO WALLPAPER: Non-woven easy-to-hang wallcoverings. A collection of contemporary designs all printed on a durable non-woven base takes its main inspiration from the coats and skins of wild animals. Similar themes are to be found in the fabrics of SABI TREVIRA and SABI VELVETS.

Product Arrivals: Texture Fabrics
We got a sneak peak of Texture Fabric’s latest and cannot wait until these fabric books come in next week!
Texture Fabric has exclusive designed fabrics from all over the world. They are known for their elegant designs with superior construction and excellent color palettes. The newest collection’s focus is luxurious design ranging from classic to modern. The collection consists of 2 color books – NEUTRALS and HUES – that feature a mix of subtle and richly colored embroideries, jacquards, prints, solids and textured velvets.
We love the detail of these embroidery fabrics from the collection. Most of these fabrics come in multiple colorways as well.

Color Forecast
As for the next year’s color forecast, we’re predicting
heavy purples, strong silvers, and sunny beiges with a good chance of taupe.
According to an article in Custom Home Magazine, the Color Marketing Group agrees.The CMG, the largest color forecasting organization based in Alexandria, VA announced this spring that p’zazz, a vibrant deep red-purple, which we have seen in past seasons on the fashion runway, is the “it” color for fall/winter 2011 to 2012. According to CMG’s forecast, “expect it to adorn feature walls, accent soft furnishings, and breathe new life into standard hues such as beige, navy, and gray.” Alongside p’zazz, honey moon—a golden hue achieved by blending “the sweet earthiness of honey and the romance of a harvest moon” to conjure upbeat realism—is the golden child for home decor in the near future.

Product We Can’t Wait to Use!
Studioart Leather Interiors
Check out these leather walls from Studiart! We now have their catalog and a few samples here at Judy’s Custom Workroom and would absolutely LOVE to use their leather wall tiles for our clients. Such a unique product and as you can see, very unique applications…
“The uniqueness of each Leatherwall collection is expressed in the versatility of the colors, patterns, geometric designs and sizes, the the natural shades of individual tesserae, as well as in the seductive blend of textures, light and shadow, in sophisticated top-stitching and in the sculptural allure created by the combination of flat and padded surfaces.”
Studioart has so many beautiful wall tiles we would use for residential projects as well as eccentric colors and materials that we would love to use in hotels, lounges, nightclubs, and other hospitality spaces like the restaurant below. This restaurant features tiles from the Klimt collection…
“The Klimt collection, which is particularly elaborate and lavish, is based on a selection of 24 types of leather with various finishes, patterns and textures. The resulting surface has great vibrancy thanks to the rich hues and light, achieved through interesting variation between shades of red, blue, orange, green, gold, silver and the chiaroscuro contrast in the optical version. A composite creation reminiscent of Art Nouveau in its execution and production, Klimt is the most complex collection in terms of research and production, with cutting-edge technology taking leather into the world of ancient mosaics.”
These walls definitely make a statement. Not only does Studioart have gorgeous product, but they offer full customization. We can specify desired leather material, size, shape, and design to create a wall personalized to perfection!
