Seen in a loft featuring exposed concrete and a softly flowing, lavish velvet: VENTURA expresses a refined contemporary lifestyle. In a mix of ultra-fine merino wool and premium-quality Tencel fibres woven onto a cotton base fabric, this upholstery and decor fabric peruates a classic visual appearance using modern materials. The curled structure of Australian merino wool exhibits considerable springiness and, in a short pile, achieves a matt, relaxed look. Tencel is a sustainable, durable fibre that is produced via a patented technique developed in Austria. Its opulent, lustrous, soft structure gives colours an extra depth and intensity – more so than other cellulose fibres. It also absorbs humidity and thereby contributes to making both the room and the seating areas comfortable. VENTURA velvet is seen as a modern alternative to mohair, and is woven in two layers held together by the velvet pile. VENTURA velvet is manufactured by a traditional company based in the Netherlands, whose history stretches back to the 18th century. VENTURA is a perfect upholstery fabric that can also add a modern, relaxed urban accent when used as a smoothly flowing decorative fabric.
