It’s
in to be out(side). Our interiors have been extending into the
exterior. This poses a fabulous opportunity to the textile industry.
But what does it take to make it in the great outdoors? Join our
hostess, Jennifer Castoldi, as she explores what it takes to make the
cut. Thinking about having a coming out party for your fabrics? Do they
have high UV protection? Are they colorfast and weather fast? High
durability, abrasion resistance and environmental consideration are all
key elements too. What is a UPF rating? Learn more about textiles that
have the credentials to bring their soft side to the backyard, roof top
garden, poolside, romantic picnic for two… And visit the famous
location of 6, Mandel where Jean-Christophe Stoërkel, landscape
architect, tells us about using textiles in his outdoor projects.
Whether you are producing or buying such fabrics, this episode gives
you one more excuse to celebrate a good report from the weatherman.
These
products are a sneak preview of what you will find at MoOD this
September. MoOD is one of the 100+ international design events the
Trendease Team travels to in order to bring our community cutting-edge
design information straight to their computer screens via www.Trendease.com
