Designed to be mixed and matched, the new Sunbrella®Shift collection by Glen Raven Custom Fabrics debuts with classic designs interpreted in a contemporary fashion. The collection comprises six patterns that cleverly layer texture, color, and pattern, fusing traditional pattern with modern styling.
Greg Voorhis, design director for Glen Raven, says, “One of the strongest trends in the market today is the use of opposing forces. You see old contrasted with new, light with dark, shiny with matte, and natural with man-made. We considered all of these opposing forces in creating this collection, and as a whole, it can be seen how we shift through these various elements, from each pattern and colorway to the next.”
Spotlight, a solid, is available in 12 colors, ranging from basic neutrals to vibrant hues. Made using PVC yarn, the fabric has a subtle metallic sheen, but is still soft to the touch. Spotlight is available in ash, azure, citron, dune, emerald, flame, galaxy, indigo, lagoon, pebble, rose, and wisteria. Loft is a chenille available in 12 colors, from classic neutrals to deep jewel tones. This textile showcases the soft hand of today’s high-performance fabrics. Loft is available in char, crimson, dune, flax, grape, gray, indigo, pebble, turquoise, white, and wisteria.
Escapade is a multicolored stripe with a textured background and bright multicolored accents. This subtle stripe is ideal for pairing with bolder patterns in this collection. Escapade is available in electro, fusion, twilight, and vivid.
A classic plaid with a modern makeover, Connect features sophisticated neutral hues and complementary bright colors. This playful fabric has the appearance of stripes on the reverse. Connect is available in cosmic, dune, fusion, and twilight.
Integrated is a two-color geometric that mixes neutral matte colors with a subtle metallic accent. This fabric features PVC yarns, for a juxtaposition of muted and shiny surfaces. Integrated is available in dune, indigo, pewter, and steel.
As a contemporary twist on the traditional palm-leaf pattern, Radiant uses the sheen of a metallic with soft, subtle color. This largescale pattern is perfectly suited to decorative pillows and accent upholstery. Radiant is available in dune, kiwi, lagoon, sangria, silver, and slate.
Fabrics in the Shift collection meet Association for Contract Textiles standards for use in high-traffic so they are suitable for indoor and outdoor residential and hospitality applications. The Shift collection is currently available to the trade and will be available at retail this fall.
