GETTING TO KNOW FABRICS

Guest speaker: Gabrielle Grubanovich, personal shopper, Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour

Join Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour’s personal shopper Gabrielle Grubanovich for a fabric know-how session. With a huge array of designs on offer, this is one area where it is easy to feel overwhelmed by choice – especially when factoring in practical issues such as fire-resistance and durability, in addition to the aesthetic side. Gain tips and tricks from someone who knows the showrooms inside out. Learn how to decode jargon and interpret labels; understand the different uses of fabrics, and find out the design implications of details such as width sizes and pattern repeats. With added guidance from Nina Butler and Lucy Speich of Zimmer + Rohde.
