Artists' impressions
A new generation of fabrics inspired by the free-flowing style of the brushwork found in oil paintings offers the perfect way to add a soft, feminine feel to a room.
Take your pick from fabrics with a vintage feel or those with bolder, more contemporary motifs
HOW TO MAKE IT WORK
•Team bold motifs with textured plains to create depth and interest in a monochromatic scheme.
•Showcase elegant designs by lining just one section of a wall with fabric.
•Enhance the faded distressed feel of painterly fabrics with simple furniture and rustic accessories.
•A restrained palette will enable you to complement florals with smart stripes.
•Use a pretty fabric in one striking shade to add a feminine touch to an otherwise plain white scheme.
•Create impact with a graphic contemporary print and a neutral palette for a smart, tailored look.
