Velvet: Small Area, One Shade Deeper

A set of French light luxury furniture with velvet upholstery. Velvet is used only on small, focal areas: a pair of armchairs, a long bench, two or three throw pillows; the color is one to two shades darker than the overall scheme, in a gray-toned cocoa, sage green, or gray-blue. The direction of the pile creates noticeable light and dark variations on the same fabric, with a bright edge at the folds. The large sofa remains in matte linen or wool. Avoid: making the large sofa heavy with velvet, using high-chroma and high-gloss velvet, adding tufting and piping decorations, using velvet extensively in multiple locations.

一組絲絨面料的法式輕奢家具。絲絨只用在小面積的重點上:一對單椅、一張長凳、兩三個抱枕;顏色比整體深一到兩階,是灰調的可可、鼠尾草綠或灰藍。絨毛的方向讓同一塊布出現明顯的深淺變化,轉折處有一道亮邊。大面積的沙發仍然是消光的亞麻或羊毛。避免:讓大面積的沙發使用絲絨變得厚重、使用高彩度與高光澤的絲絨、加入拉釦與滾邊裝飾、在多個位置大量使用絲絨。
