Upholstery fabric determines the appearance our furniture, sofas, chairs, armchairs, etc. Choosing the best upholstery is not an easy task as stores offer hundreds of kinds of fabrics for every taste, in almost every color and pattern. One and the same fabric will look in a different way on a chair, sofa or a bed headboard. The durability of fabrics depends on many factors like natural or synthetic, the nature of the fibers, the finish, the weave, etc. Fabrics are rated upon their performance on the “double rub” test. Many people think upholstery and interior design are just aesthetic aspects. But upholstery can play important safety roles as well. Stray bits of fabric and holes in upholstery can be tripping hazards. When people expect the area to be smooth and neatly sewn, they can catch parts of their feet or toes on the exposed areas. This is especially dangerous around hot tubs and pools. By: Madhu Bhatia 1. You should always keep in mind that you should always remove your shoes before you enter you house.
