Bouclé: Fibers Curled into Balls

A close-up of a bouclé fabric. The surface is composed of countless yarns curled into small balls, with a fluffy and irregular texture, noticeable three-dimensionality and shadows. The color is undyed creamy white or oatmeal, showing subtle color variations of the fibers themselves. This fabric covers plump, curved sofas and armchairs, where the fibers are more densely compressed at the turns. Avoid: using smooth plain-woven fabric, using highly saturated dyed bouclé, making the surface appear flat without three-dimensionality, using it extensively in the same space, which would diminish the contrast of texture.

一片圈絨面料的近景。表面由無數捲曲成小球的紗線構成,質地蓬鬆而不規則,有明顯的立體感與陰影;顏色是未染色的奶油白或燕麥色,可以看到纖維本身的細微色差。這種面料包覆在曲線飽滿的沙發與單椅上,在轉折處纖維被擠壓得更密。避免:使用平織的光滑布料、使用高彩度的染色圈絨、讓表面看起來平整沒有立體感、在同一空間大量使用讓質地失去對比。
