Sunbrella Fabrics

The living Room; a formal room in the American Home. That is the bastion of fine living. It is filled with the  most formal pieces of furniture, the finest objects of art that the family has and as many delicate collectibles as possible. The furniture is upholstered in fine fabrics that are not for daily use. The best lighting, the best carpet, and the best window and wall coverings.

This definition of what is supposed to be a focal point room in any home makes the idea of actually living in this room an nondescript idea. And the use of the space an uncomfortable and unpleasing thought.

Today this type of room still has it's place in homes where this is a space that is not needed. However in most homes the living room is just that a place to live in. One well ask what has caused this transition to take place. The best and most prevalent reason is the fabric. 

One of the reasons sited by most decorators is that a space becomes unlivable is due to the wrong furniture choice, in other words, the furnishings are not comfortable and secondly, the choice of fabrics. The fabric gives the impression that the room should not be used.  

All of this has changed with the introduction of Sunbrella fabrics from the outdoors in! . When people think of outdoor fabrics they think of fabrics that are stiff, hard to the touch and plasticky. These descriptive words may well have been used 10 to 15 years ago when thinking of outdoor fabrics. Sunbrella uses only solution dyed fabrics, this dying process allows the colors to be locked in, so that bleaching in the fabrics is no longer a worry. The biggest difference between the outdoor fabrics and the indoor fabrics is that outdoor fabrics are fade, moisture, and stain resistant as well as very easy to clean. A cleaning agent like Acetone can be used without damaging the fabric.

High end upholsters like Brandt and Whitney have the joined the ranks of other firms in offering versatile indoor out door fabrics  to their customer base. In the case of the Sunbrella fabrics that Brandt and Whitney offers these fabrics can be use for many different applications from upholstery to drapery, curtains, to bedcovers, even clothing.
