WHAT WE LOVE TODAY COLUMN: Tilton Fenwick's New Fabric Collection With Duralee

Fall 2018:
Inspired by Portugal, 

We Love This New Fabric Collection by
Tilton Fenwick for Duralee
Calling all interior designers-- when looking for a fresh, new fabric collection to spruce up your projects, take note of design duo Tilton Fenwick's new collection with Duralee (the second one they've created with the fabric house). The gorgeous printed cotton collection is inspired by their travels through Portugal, and wields a combination of soft and jewel-tone hues and leafy, floral patterns together with colors like sea green, mint, poppy, sapphire and red.  The team visualizes their fabrics upholstered on walls and donning a client's favorite vintage furniture piece, and both agree it will be exciting to see these textiles come to light in a design space.  

When combining these patterns and colors together and layered in a space, they touch on the "maximizing the mix" trend that is popular right now, yet when using one of the designs alone in a room, we think it will most certainly transform a room.  Please see more features about Tilton Fenwick here on Nest by Tamara, Tilton Fenwick 2011 designsand Tilton Fenwick 2016 in the Hamptons.
