Silk and Pinstripes

A set of Neoclassical textiles. The fabric is shimmering silk or satin, in colors that echo the walls: pale teal, ivory, or light gold; patterns are limited to two types: fine vertical stripes, or regularly repeating small garlands and urn motifs. It is used on chair seats, curtains, and some wall coverings. The curtains are simple straight drapes, with a horizontal valance adorned with tassels. Avoid: using large floral prints and realistic flowers, using matte coarse woven fabrics, adding highly saturated colors, making curtains into heavy Baroque-style draperies.

一組新古典的織品。面料是有微光的絲綢或緞,顏色是與牆呼應的淡青綠、象牙或淺金;圖案只有兩種:細的垂直條紋,或是規則重複的小型花環與甕形圖樣。它用在椅面、窗簾與部分的牆面包布上。窗簾是簡單的直垂,配一道有流蘇的水平簾頭。避免:使用大朵的印花與寫實花卉、使用消光的粗織布料、加入高彩度的顏色、把窗簾做成巴洛克式的厚重帷幔。
