KnollTextiles celebrates its 60th anniversary with the Archival Collection-a collection of upholstery, drapery, wall covering and Imago products based on the company's rich historic past. In order to create the Archival Collection, creative director Dorothy Cosonas did extensive research in the company's archives to find fabrics that were timeless and could be interpreted for today's market. One of the upholstery patterns in the group, Fibra (featured), is available in five colors; is composed of 71 percent cotton and 29 percent polyester; and has a Nano-TexTM finish. Luna Textiles introduces two new multi-surface patterns: Mezzanine and Plaza. Co-designed with Victor Innovatex, the patterns are made from 100 percent Eco Intelligent® Polyester-a Cradle-to-Cradle Gold-certified product. Mezzanine and Plaza are part of a sophisticated new collection, Suite 280, for use in hospitality interiors and beyond. The Suite 280 Collection blends whimsical patterns and rich colors to achieve a distinct, welcoming feel. The Plaza and Mezzanine patterns allude to a delightfully eccentric style that creates a distinct sense of modern glamour.

Pallas® Textiles introduces Tribute, a new environmentally friendly upholstery collection, and one of the first to be made from bamboo fibers. Used for thousands of years across Asia to create architecture and furniture, bamboo is regarded as a symbol of longevity, endurance and perseverance. Yet, only recently has the tropical woody grass become a resource for textile production. The ability of bamboo to grow exponentially, thriving even under extreme adversity, makes bamboo a smart, sustainable alternative. The collection pays homage to the beautiful intelligence of nature, offering a sensual hand, intriguing luster levels, and brilliant color play with the legendary resilience of bamboo. Drawing on her experience of growing up amidst cornfields in the Northern Illinois countryside, Unika Vaev's director of design, Ashley Allen Short, has created a new group of textiles called the Pastoral Collection. These three new fabrics, Furrows, Windmill and Fleece, are a tribute to this landscape-flat and rolling; shaped as much by farming as by the retreat of the glaciers at the end of the last Ice Age. The Pastoral Collection is rooted at the moment when the land is at its most promising, as the austerity of winter begins to break into the promise of spring.
