Jakob Schlaepfer Interior Fabrics & Wallcoverings 2020
Color, in many varieties, is the guiding principle that runs through the interior fabric and wallpaper collection 2020. Color as a material, color schemes and expressively abstract paintings are what inspired the wallpaper and fabric designs. In a newly interpreted way, an artistic and expressive atmosphere is created for trendy, luxurious interior design.
The thread of innovations spins literarily around yarn, with which fabrics are woven, embroidered and colored. For example, loose threads packed between organza or a rich classic jacquard with floating weft threads is experimented with the jacquard-weaving mill and surpasses the limits of technology.
The collection includes novelties in textile technology and reinterprets well-known methods. An abundance of base materials such as linen, cotton or futuristic-looking polyester fabrics become unmistakable innovative Jakob Schlaepfer creations.
The color statement of the collection is fresh and has a spring-like expression.
Bright yellow, salmon orange and blue add accents to the neutral colors such as beige and putty gray.
Jakob Schlaepfer Interior Fabrics
Trama is a multicolored floral - jacquard fabric, where sections of the warp threads are partially omitted. The effect created by the loose weft threads is reminiscent of a digital glitch, but in the equivalent of a web image.
Filo is a masterpiece of jacquard - weaving and a breath of nothing. Colorful, loosely woven weft threads are wrapped in a transparent organza.
With Filo Punto a print is added on. They both can be used as semi-transparent drapery.
A technical innovation, Bauhaus and Sophie Täuber-Arp are the inspiration for Sophie, the embroidered mosaic, partially overprinted with a generous geometric design.
The surface of Elopaille, a classic sequin embroidery for which Jakob Schlaepfer is famous, is reminiscent of anodized aluminum. The four colors shine vividly in royal blue, chartreuse, brown and gray blue.
Nanette, a romantic country house fabric for the 21st century, captivates the combination of a classic cotton jacquard with foil application, applied by the latest laser embroidery technology.
Toon is a woven barré stripe, generous, multi-colored, with sophisticated ombre effects. Constructed with golden lurex in the warp and countless colors in the weft, a weaving masterpiece.
Painted porcelain for the window? Worcester sequin embroidery, overprinted with large bouquets, makes it possible.
Celerina draws inspiration from the luxurious St. Moritz chalets.
A faux fur embroidered with sequins, simultaneously avant-garde and traditional.
Airy, light linen is the base material for the prints Pia and Lia.
Pia is a modern painting for the window and Lia carries on the idea from the 19th century with its opulent floral ornaments, in a modern interpretation.
Jakob Schlaepfer Wallcoverings 2020
Jakob Schlaepfer launches eight new wallcovering designs for 2020 with the unmistakable and unique Jakob Schlaepfer signature.
Protagonists are narrative borders and opulent, large-scale all-over repeats. The designs are printed on a matt fleece, called Vello, or the base quality Glinka with a holographic iridescent foil.
Vello Vernice and Vello Emilio create abstract paintings for the wall.
With strong brushstrokes and unconventional coloring, Jakob Schlaepfer is breaking new ground in the designing of wallpaper.
Glinka Rello is a wallpaper like an oversized aquarelle. The dazzling hologram effect from Glinka adds depth to the rich colors of the abstract painted flowers.
All kinds of animals are hidden in the Glinka Kiriko wallpaper, which is laid out as a border. A hidden object design with a lot to discover.
Vello Bijoux an ornament composed of jewelry and iridescent glass chandeliers, „Diamonds are a girls best friends“!
The two designs Glinka Abbonda and Vello Stafford are baroque opulence. Both laid out as an oversized border in the wealth of shapes and colors that Jakob Schlaepfer have.
Glinka Catena, printed on the quality with hologram effect, was inspired by a warp.
