Fabric Edit 20 / October 14, 2026
Published October 14, 2026 / Total Issue 20
Deep Navy Arrival Lounge
Marine geometric drapery, white voile, and platinum light for a boutique-hospitality entrance lounge.
Design Story
A dark arrival room needs vertical light, not pale furniture everywhere.
Lantern Marine gives full-height drapery a precise graphic rhythm while Voile White preserves daytime light. Heavyweight Textured Knit Marine carries the navy into one quiet secondary surface, and Silk Luster Platinum catches a controlled highlight. The layered window gives a compact hospitality lounge both height and flexibility.
Palette Logic
55% navy architecture, 25% marine drapery, 15% warm stone, 5% platinum light.
Deep navy, marine, warm stone, white voile, platinum, dark walnut, and brushed brass.
Fabric Palette
Four coordinated roles
The web article keeps the marketing story, then surfaces the technical fabric notes dealers need before recommending the look.
Lead Working Drapery
Lantern Marine
Lantern Marine gives the tall drapery a controlled repeat that reads as tailored rather than nautical.
Material Note
110 in. width, 9.3 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Repeat: 6.68 in. H x 6.3 in. V. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available. Review motif placement because shade construction can interrupt the pattern.
Daylight Sheer
Voile White
Install Voile White closest to the glass as the true daytime layer behind the working marine drapery.
Material Note
118 in. width, 2 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available. Roman shade use requires a liner.
Marine Texture
Heavyweight Textured Knit Marine
Use this textured plain on a smaller Roman or coordinated soft accent when the room needs marine depth without another motif.
Material Note
110 in. width, 8 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available.
Platinum Highlight
Silk Luster Platinum
Use the narrow-width luster sparingly to repeat brushed metal and reflected light, not as the dominant window fabric.
Material Note
54 in. width, 2.7 oz/sq yd, 100% Polyester. Flat, Classic, Hobbled Roman shades are available. Flat style width is limited to 18-54 in.; shades wider than 54 in. require seams. At 54 in. wide, review seams and finished treatment width before specifying a large application.
Dealer Script
Keep the architecture navy, run Lantern Marine from ceiling to floor, and place Voile White closest to the glass so the room can move from bright arrival to evening enclosure.
