Thibaut expands its offering of textile wallcoverings in Grasscloth Resource Volume 2 , awash in natural hues with edgy metallic highlights. A thoroughly modern interpretation of this eco-friendly variety of wallcoverings, fine sisals and chunky paper weaves have been gathered alongside rugged sea grass, to create a colorful and dynamic collection.

Jubilee Collection by Thibaut

estateofdesign — Thu, 15 Dec 2011 20:21:23 +0000

Guided by a passion and energy for adventure, the Jubilee Collection by Thibaut is a chic gathering of patterns and colors sure to inspire. Painted in pastoral hues, worldly motifs are translated upon sleek, tactile grounds in a great array of textures, shapes and styles.

Pictured above: Cayman print fabric in Beige and Pink, Ingrid wallpaper in Green on White, and Starburst woven in Apple Green.

A cornerstone of the Jubilee Collection, Cayman was derived from an antique crewel and translated into wallpaper, printed fabric and a lush embroidery. Tried and true Starburst radiates the rainbow of colors in a lasting upholstery fabric. Drafted with a modified hexagonal print, Ingrid rises to complete a thoroughly contemporary design.

Truly versatile, the outdoor fabric stylings of Thai Ikat have been finished with snow-crab shells for maximum durability and survival al fresco or inside.

Jubilee Collection and other Thibaut collections are available at Estate of Design in Stonemill Design Center. Please visit http://www.thibautdesign.com/to view patterns and decorating ideas.
